Dear Friends,
This Sunday, we will celebrate Pentecost, the day that the Holy Spirit came with the sound of a rushing wind and lit upon the disciples as flames of fire over their heads. The Spirit thrust them out into the streets and empowered them to speak in various languages so that they could share the Good News of the Gospel with people who had gathered in Jerusalem from across the world. It is one of my favorite Sundays of the year - the day the Church was born!
I often think about how the Holy Spirit is described in Scripture to be like the wind. The wind can come as a gentle breeze, a steady current, or the rushing gale of a hurricane. We do not see the wind, but we can certainly feel it, and we can see the evidence of the wind at work in our world. Isn’t the same true of God’s Spirit? I hope you will join us this Sunday as we celebrate the work of the Holy Wind of God within and among us.
In Christ,
Rev. Cameron Smith
