The day the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles and Mother Mary, filling them with courage and boldness to spread the faith to others (Celebrated seven weeks after Easter Sunday).

• A. Ascension
• B. Pentecost
• C. Incarnation
• D. Covenant

Answer: (B)

Pentecost is the moment described: the Holy Spirit comes to the Apostles and Mary, filling them with courage to proclaim the faith. This event is celebrated fifty days after Easter, which is seven weeks after Easter Sunday, and it’s seen as the Church’s birth, when the apostles are empowered to begin their mission publicly.

The other terms don’t fit this specific moment. Ascension refers to Jesus rising into heaven, which happens forty days after Easter, not the Spirit’s descent. Incarnation is when God becomes human in Jesus, a different event in salvation history. Covenant is about God’s agreements with His people, a broad idea rather than a single day.
