Sunday Service
May 24th, 2026 10AM
The Scripture Lessons for Pentecost Sunday are:
Acts 2:1-21 or Numbers 11:24-30
Psalm 104:24-34, 35b
1 Corinthians 12:3b-13 or Actis 2:1-21
John 20:19-23 or John 7:37-39
This is Pentecost. The liturgical color, for the pastor's stole and paraments (cloth hanging from the pulpit and lectern) is red. This symbolizes the fire of the Spirit in the church.
Many contemporary Christians wrestle with the theology of the Holy Spirit, as there are innumerable facets to the Holy Spirit. As such, Spirit often remains the most mysterious “person” of the Trinity. Spirit is powerful and active, and we understand the role of Spirit within larger truths about God and God’s activities in the world. God empowers the disciples on Pentecost by the Spirit, and the psalmist emphasizes the role of Spirit in creation. Paul tells the Corinthians that the Spirit enables us to recognize Jesus as Lord and serve one another. John tells of Jesus’ promise of “rivers of living water,” indicating the coming Spirit. We have much for which to be grateful in the presence and power of the Holy Spirit as it empowers us to serve and reach others.
Blessings of Eastertide, Rev. Amie
