As we plan to celebrate both we will concentrte on our Ascension plans and celebrate our Lady's Feast tomorrow.
We will however start the Novena to the Holy Spirit today:
The Novena in honor of the Holy Spirit is the original novena, of which all other novenas are only imitations. Our Lord Himself instituted this novena when, on the day of His ascension, He sent His Apostles back to Jerusalem to pray for nine days that they might be ready on the tenth day, which was Pentecost, to receive the Holy Spirit. ~ Catholic Culture
