When Bishop Robert P. Reed was a deacon studying at the Pontifical North American College in Rome, he had the incredible opportunity to chant the Gospel during Pentecost Sunday Mass with Pope John Paul II.
"On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, the doors being shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you." When He had said this, he showed them His hands and His side. Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you." And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained."
-John 20:19-23
