The 2026 resource invites readers to wait prayerfully for Pentecost, remembering Jesus’ promises about the Holy Spirit. It describes H-O-P-E as Heaven’s Outpouring of the Promise of the Father to Everyone, everywhere.
The original plan begins with Ascension on 14 May 2026 and continues through Pentecost on 24 May. These are the dates of the archived plan; the readings can also guide personal prayer at other times.
