Lots of fun stuff is happening this
Sunday!
We are get to have ice cream sundaes
in the morning, wear red, and celebrate the day of Pentecost. The sundaes are an
All Saints’ tradition, but wearing red to
celebrate the day of Pentecost is a much larger tradition. Pentecost is all
about the Holy Spirit, and is also known as the birthday of the church. We wear
red on the day of Pentecost because red is the color that represents the Holy
Spirit. Check out the video below for a fun and lively explanation of Pentecost
and why we celebrate it. This video is made by a Roman Catholic organization,
but it everything it shares is true for us as well, so the one time it refers to
Catholics just know it could say Episcopalians too.
Looking forward to seeing you on
Sunday!
Peace,
Lauren+
P.S.
We are celebrating all those who
have worked with your children in Sunday School, Children’s Chapel, Youth Group,
and Confirmation this Sunday at the 9am service and at Sundaes on Sunday. I hope
you all will be able to be there to share your thanks with
them!
