Pentecost-Birth of the Christian Church
Luke 24:33-49
One night Jesus appeared in a room where many of His friends were gathered. He told them to tell their family, friends, neighbors and even strangers that He is alive. He told them to share everything He had taught them. They were to tell the people in Jerusalem first, but then they were to tell people everywhere. Jesus told them to wait in Jerusalem until God sent them a special gift of power from heaven. This gift would help them speak in various languages, so that all people would hear about Jesus.
Dear God
Thank you for the gift of the church and your Holy Spirit. Help us to be filled with your power.
Amen.
