What’s Mine is Yours 5/24/15

"When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. Divided tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of them." -- Acts 2:1-2

The culmination of the “Great 50 Days” (Pentecost) comes with the rush of the spirit in wind and fire. As Jesus foretold, the Spirit is shared by all gathered together in spite of their differences of language and culture. The Spirit makes its home in and through all people. Jesus has promised, “what’s mine is yours!” The early church believed this day was one of the most appropriate days for receiving new members into the Body of Christ. As part of that tradition, we will baptize, receive new members and offer a way for anyone to commit as they are comfortable to making this church their spiritual home.
