“Then there appeared to them tongues as of fire, which parted and came to rest on each one of them (Mary and the Apostles). And they were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled them to proclaim”.   (Read the Acts of the Apostles 2:1-11 and the  Gospel of St. John 20: 19-23).
