Opening Prayer All-powerful God, by water and the Holy Spirit you freed your us from sin and gave us new life. Send your Holy Spirit upon us to be our helper and guide.

Pentecost is the Church’s Birthday How do you celebrate your birthday? Do you celebrate every year? Why?

Acts of the Apostles Chapter 2 Verses 1-12 Hint: Jesus was NOT with them He had Ascended!

When the time for Pentecost was fulfilled, they were all in one place together And suddenly there came from the sky a noise like a strong driving wind,

and it filled the entire house in which they were. Then there appeared to them tongues as of fire, which parted and came to rest on each one of them.

What is a Tongue of Fire?

And they were all filled with the holy Spirit and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled them to proclaim.

Special Gifts of the Spirit after Pentecost Tongues Interpretation of tongues Healing Leadership Mercy Discernment Prophecy Knowledge Wisdom Faith Teaching Giving

All these gifts were to make the Church stronger

Come, Holy Spirit. Fill the hearts of your faithful And kindle in us the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit And we shall be created, And you will renew the face of the earth.
