“The Apostles were as yet a kind of organization; but they were to become an organism under the influence of the Spirit of Christ that would come on Pentecost.  Ten days after the Ascension of our Blessed Lord into Heaven, the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles gathered in the upper room of Jerusalem, baptizing them with fire, made them one, signed them with a sign and sealed them with a seal – and at that precise moment the new body of Christ was born.  The body of Christ is His Church.” Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
