Pentecost

I don't remember celebrating Pentecost as a feast day as a kid; though I grew up charismatic Catholic. Now as an evangelical christian, I feel inspired to bring some attention to this traditional feast day. It is the birthday of the church...and we received so much from the Holy Spirit. The gifts of the spirit: healing, prophecy, speaking in tongues, miracles are some... and the fruit of the spirit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, kindness, and self control.
