PENTECOST SUNDAY, MAY 31

PENTECOST SUNDAY, MAY 31
Pentecost is significant in both the Old and New Testaments. “Pentecost” is actually the Greek name for a festival known in the Old Testament as the Feast of Weeks
(Leviticus 23:15; Deuteronomy 16:9).
The Greek word means “fifty” and refers to the fifty days that have elapsed since Easter (Acts 2:1-21).

It is traditional to wear red this day.
