The Service at St Andrew’s this Sunday will be a celebratory one. May 23 is PENTECOST Sunday.
What are we celebrating??
In John 14:16-17 Jesus told his disciples that the Holy Spirit would come after Him:
“And I will ask the Father and he will give you another Saviour, the Holy Spirit of truth, who will be to you a friend just like me—and he will never leave you. The world won’t receive him because they can’t see him or know him. But you will know him intimately, because he will make his home in you and will live inside you. “
Acts 2:1-8 tell us the story of how the disciples became emboldened to spread the words of love and hope that Jesus had shown them. Wind and flames and speaking in many languages are all part of what many regard as the birth if the Christian church.
What was lost at Babel (Genesis 11: 1-9) was restored at Pentecost.
You are invited to wear a Pentecost colour this Sunday – red, orange, yellow, purple…… Be it an accessory or a garment it will add to the celebratory feel of the day.
Do join us.
