Sundays and Holy Days in May 2029

6th Sunday of Easter

Sunday May 6, 2029

The readings for the 6th Sunday of Easter Year A remind us that God is always with us and always caring for us, no matter where we are or what the circumstance. So some possible themes for this Sunday are trust in God and a reverence for human dignity.

The Ascension of the Lord

Sunday May 13, 2029

The feast of the Ascension of the Lord Year A commemorates the day that Jesus Christ ascended into heaven. He also gave the Great Commission, that all of the world should be saved. So this is a day to focus on our service to the Kingdom of God and evangelization. Here are some ideas for youth ministry, your home, and your Sunday School.

7th Sunday of Easter

Sunday May 13, 2029

In most dioceses in the United States, the observance of the Solemnity of the Ascension is moved to the following Sunday, superseding the 7th Sunday of Easter Year A.

Pentecost

Sunday May 20, 2029

The Mass readings for Pentecost Year A clearly emphasize the role of the Holy Spirit. Through the Spirit’s gifts, we are empowered to share the message of Jesus Christ with the world. This important day marks the birth of the Church and is celebrated 50 days after Easter, signifying the end of the Easter season.

Trinity Sunday

Sunday May 27, 2029

Trinity Sunday is the Sunday after Pentecost. Catholics celebrate Trinity Sunday to honor one of the most basic of our beliefs, God is three persons in one – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. See resources for Trinity Sunday Year A here.
