Tonight we will party like it's Pentecost! Sunday is Pentecost and we will celebrate the birth of the Church (big C) tonight!!
Pentecost comes from the Greek word “pentecoste,” which means “fiftieth day.” Pentecost Sunday is celebrated fifty days after Easter each year. It is the day that the church celebrates the coming of the Holy Spirit to the apostles and the other disciples that were gathered in Jerusalem at the time. The Spirit miraculously allowed those gathered to hear the Word spoken in their own native
languages. Over three thousand people were converted and baptized that day. The Christian church marks Pentecost as the beginning of the church, and it is often referred to as the birthday of the church.
See ya at the party! Bring your Bible!
