Did you know Sunday was Pentecost?

We all know when Christmas and Easter roll around, but did you notice a MAJOR Christian holiday when it came around this Sunday? Believe it or not, it was Pentcost the day that the Holy Spirit descended on the early disciples.

Time and Date.com says, "As recorded in the New Testament of the Bible, it was on the 50th day after Easter that the apostles were praying together and the Holy Spirit descended on them. They received the “gift of tongues” – the ability to speak in other languages – and immediately began to preach about Jesus Christ to Jewish people from all over the world who flocked to Jerusalem for the Feast of Shavuot.
According to church tradition, Pentecost is always about seven weeks after Easter Sunday, or 50 days after Easter, including Easter Day."
The symbols of Pentecost are those of the Holy Spirit and include flames, wind, and a dove.
