On Sunday, May 28, Christians honor Pentecost, a celebration that takes place 50 days after Easter and 10 days after Ascension. After the weekends of May 1, May 8 and Ascension, a fourth extended weekend presents itself in this month of May 2023, with Whit Monday.

This feast marks the date when God sends the Holy Spirit upon Jesus' 120 disciples, including the 12 Apostles. It is an important feast because it closes the Easter season, which lasts seven weeks, of which it is the crowning.
