On the Day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit fell upon the people of God in a divine and dizzying display. In Acts 2:1-13 people from all across the region were gathered in Jerusalem when a sound like the rush of a violent wind made known to them the presence of the Holy Spirit. Without warning, each person began speaking in a foreign language yet they could understand each other perfectly. As we contemplate the Spirit’s presence amongst us, we will wonder together about how the Holy Spirit is empowering our church to both hear the voices of our neighbors and to recognize the calling of our God.
