Welcome to Sundays at All Hallows. This Sunday, the Feast of Pentecost, also known as Holy Spirit Sunday, Pentecost Sunday, Whit Sunday, Whitsunday and Whitsun, commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit on the apostles and other believers while they were gathered in a house in Jerusalem during the Festival of Weeks. This event is in some Christian traditions considered the birth of the Church. The descent of the Holy Spirit on the gathering was the fulfillment of Jesus’ promise that his followers would receive power from on high, enabling them to be his witnesses in Jerusalem, Samaria, and beyond. It would launch what is called the Great Commission, which is the principal mission of the Church—to tell people about Jesus and make them disciples, baptizing them in the name of the Triune God and instructing them in Jesus’ commandments, his teaching.
Readings: Acts 2: 1-21, 1 Corinthians 12: 3-13, and John 7: 37-39
Message: What Is Revival? Why Is Revival Desirable?
