[https://www.crossroadsinitiative.com/media/articles/pentecosttonguesasignofcatholicity/ From a sermon by a sixth century anonymous African Church Father "The Church in its unity speaks in the language of every nation"] <ref>Sermo 8, 1-3: PL 65, 743-744</ref> {{cquote|...so today the Church, united by the Holy Spirit, speaks in the language of every people. Therefore if somebody should say to one of us, "You have received the Holy Spirit, why do you not speak in tongues?" his reply should be, "I do indeed speak in the tongues of all men, because I belong to the body of Christ, that is, the Church, and she speaks all languages.}}
