Paraclete (Pentecost)

History

Paraclete, or Pentecost, falls on the fiftieth day after Fasika. It remembers the coming of the Holy Spirit, the Paraclete, on the apostles. It ends the fifty days of joy after Easter, when the Wednesday and Friday fasts are not kept. The Apostles' Fast (Tsome Hawariat) begins the next day.
