Yes, Mary was present in the Upper Room on Pentecost.
The Holy Spirit, the Blessed Virgin Mary, & the 12 Apostles.
Mary was present with the Apostles when they received the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. She was gathered with them in the upper room as instructed by Jesus before his ascension. She played a vital role in the early Christian community as a witness to these events.
Pentecost is the feast which celebrates the coming of the Holy Spirit upon the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Apostles nine days after Our Blessed Lord's ascension into heaven. It is rightly called the birthday of the Church because, with the coming of the Holy Spirit, the apostles were no longer frightened, timid men in the upper room. They now had the courage of their convictions and were out preaching and baptizing by the thousands.
The women present at the Pentecost in the book of Acts were likely the same women mentioned in Acts 1:14, which includes Mary the mother of Jesus and other women who followed Jesus. Though not explicitly named during the Pentecost event, these women were among the early followers who gathered with the apostles.
Jesus appeared to the apostles,because he knew they were the one. liked he picked Mary the Mother of God.They said that why did you pick us?"Jesus answered that you will believe in me,God and they were brave they would stand up for Jesus.
It was mainly Matthew and john the apostles wrote it. but Mark and Luke also wrote but they were not apostles.
The Ascension, Pentecost, and Assumption are significant events in Christian theology that reflect key moments in the life of Jesus and the early Church. The Ascension marks Jesus' return to heaven after his resurrection, while Pentecost celebrates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the apostles, empowering them to spread the Gospel. The Assumption refers to Mary's being taken up into heaven, which underscores her unique role in salvation history as the mother of Jesus. Together, these events highlight the divine connection between Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and Mary, emphasizing the continuity of God's plan for humanity.
No, Mary of Bethany was not one of the apostles. She was a friend and follower of Jesus, commonly associated with her sister Martha and brother Lazarus. The apostles were the twelve chosen by Jesus to be his closest disciples and to spread his teachings after his death and resurrection.
No exact number is given. There were the eleven apostles (Acts 1:13); "the women" (an unknown number, v.14); Mary the mother of Jesus "and His brethren" (another uncertain number, v.14); and "about" 120 disciples (v.15).
At the last supper Jesus along with his 12 disciples were present.
The Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary include five key events: the Resurrection of Jesus, where He rises from the dead; the Ascension, where Jesus ascends into heaven; the Descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, empowering the apostles; the Assumption of Mary, where she is taken up into heaven; and the Coronation of Mary as Queen of Heaven. These mysteries celebrate the triumph of Jesus and Mary over sin and death, emphasizing themes of hope and divine glory.
Actually the first Pentecost is recorded in Ex. 19.14-25 and Mary was not born until over 1500 years. But concerning the Pentecost described in Acts 2, Mary was in the upper room, but the disciples had gone up to the Temple to celebrate the First Pentecost (Ex. 19), and the men were in the courtyard of the men and the women were in their own courtyard. Notice that in Acts 2.5 it talks about 'men' and in verses 14, 22 and 29 Peter addresses the 'men'. The men respond in verse 37 and say to the disciples "men and brothers what shall we do".
