As We Go
ORDER OF WORSHIP Acts 2:1-21 When Pentecost Day arrived, they were all together in one place. 2 Suddenly a sound from heaven like the howling of a fierce wind filled the entire house where
they were sitting. 3 They saw what seemed to be individual flames of fire alighting on
each one of them. 4 They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other
languages as the Spirit enabled them to speak. 5 There were pious Jews from every
nation under heaven living in Jerusalem. 6 When they heard this sound, a crowd gathered. They were mystified because everyone heard them speaking in their
native languages. 7 They were surprised and amazed, saying, “Look, aren’t all the
people who are speaking Galileans, every one of them? 8 How then can each of us
hear them speaking in our native language? 9 Parthians, Medes, and Elamites; as well as residents of Mesopotamia, Judea, and
Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, 10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the regions of Libya bordering Cyrene; and visitors from
Rome (both Jews and converts to Judaism), 11 Cretans and Arabs—we hear them
declaring the mighty works of God in our own languages!” 12 They were all surprised
and bewildered. Some asked each other, “What does this mean?” 13 Others jeered at them, saying, “They’re full of new wine!”
14 Peter stood with the other eleven apostles. He raised his voice and declared, “Judeans and everyone living in Jerusalem!
Know this! Listen carefully to my words! 15 These people aren’t drunk, as you
suspect; after all, it’s only nine o’clock in the morning! 16 Rather, this is what was
spoken through the prophet Joel:17 In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will
prophesy. Your young will see visions. Your elders will dream dreams. 18 Even
upon my servants, men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. 19 I will cause wonders to occur in the heavens above and
signs on the earth below, blood and fire and a cloud of smoke. 20 The sun will be changed into darkness, and the moon will be changed into blood, before the great and spectacular day of the Lord comes.
21 And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.

What Is Pentecost SundayOne of the principal days of the Christian year, celebrated on the fiftieth day after Easter. The Greek word pentecoste means “fiftieth day.” Pentecost is the day on which the Christian church commemorates the coming of the Holy Spirit upon the apostles and others assembled in Jerusalem. It marks the beginning of the Christian church and the proclamation of its message throughout the world and is often referred to as the birthday of the church. The liturgical color for Pentecost is red.
