“Pentecost: 50 Days Later” (John 7:37-39)

Are you the kind of person who counts down the days until their birthday? It is fun to celebrate the beginning of something special, whether it be a life, a relationship, or even a Church. Today is Pentecost Sunday, the day that some might call the birthday of the Christian Church. And the best part of birthdays is not the cake, but the gifts. At Pentecost, the Church was given the gift of the Holy Spirit. Let’s celebrate our shared gift of faith on this special day.
