I’ll post daily readings for the week between Pentecost Sunday and Trinity Sunday.
Pray: Book of Common Prayer, Collect for Day of Pentecost
Almighty God, on this day, through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, you revealed the way of eternal life to every race and nation: Pour out this gift anew, that by the preaching of the Gospel your salvation may reach to the ends of the earth; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Do: The Church has long used the symbols of fire, wind, and water to represent the power given to us by the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. Today would be a great day to light candles, host a bonfire or walk around a neighborhood seeking out evidence of the Holy Spirit’s light.
