And
kindle it, Your holy flame bestowing

Come Down O Love Divine

O let it freely burn,
til
earthly passions turn
To dust and ashes in its heat consuming;’
And let Your glorious light
shine
ever on my sight,
And clothe me round, the while my path illuming
.Slide12
Come Down O Love Divine
3. Let
holy charity,
my
outward vesture be,’
And lowliness become my inner clothing;
True lowliness of heart,
which
takes the humbler part,
And o’er its own shortcomings weeps with loathing
.Slide13
Come Down O Love Divine

so the yearning strong
,
with which the soul will long,
Shall far
outpass
the power of human telling;
For none can guess its grace,
till
he becomes the place
Wherein the Holy Spirit makes His dwelling.

FIRST READING
Acts 2:1-21
The coming of the Holy Spirit
R: The first reading for Pentecost is written in Chapter two of Acts beginning at verse one. Slide30
30
Acts 2:1-21
On the day of Pentecost all the LORD'S followers were together in one place.
2
Suddenly there was a noise from heaven like the sound of a mighty wind! It filled the house where they were meeting.
3
Then they saw what looked like fiery tongues moving in all directions, and a tongue came and settled on each person there. Slide31
31
Acts 2:1-21
4
The Holy Spirit took control of everyone, and they began speaking whatever languages the Spirit let them speak.
5
Many religious Jews from every country in the world were living in Jerusalem.
6
And when they heard this noise, a crowd gathered. Slide32
32
Acts 2:1-21
But they were surprised, because they were hearing everything in their own languages.
7
They were excited and amazed, and said:
Don't all these who are speaking come from Galilee?
8
Then why do we hear them speaking our very own languages? Slide33
33
Acts 2:1-21
9
Some of us are from Parthia, Media, and Elam. Others are from Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus, Asia,

11
Crete, and Arabia. Slide34

Acts 2:1-21
Some of us were born Jews, and others of us have chosen to be Jews. Yet we all hear them using our own languages to tell the wonderful things God has done.

35
Acts 2:1-21
13
Others made fun of the LORD'S followers and said, "They are drunk."

Peter stood with the eleven apostles and spoke in a loud and clear voice to the crowd:
Friends and everyone else living in Jerusalem, listen carefully to what I have to say! Slide36
36
Acts 2:1-21
15
You are wrong to think that these people are drunk. After all, it is only nine o'clock in the morning.
16
But this is what God had the prophet Joel say,
17
"When the last days come, I will give my Spirit to everyone. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your young men will see visions, and your old men will have dreams. Slide37
37
Acts 2:1-21
18
In those days I will give my Spirit to my servants, to my servants, both men and women, and they will prophesy.
19
I will work miracles in the sky above and wonders on the earth below. There will be blood and fire and clouds of smoke.
20
The sun will turn dark, and the moon will be as red as blood before the great and wonderful day of the Lord appears.Slide38
38
Acts 2:1-21
21
Then the Lord will save everyone who asks for his help."

Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father. That is all we need."

48Slide49
John 14:8-17,25-27

Don't you believe that I am one with the Father and that the Father is one with me? What I say isn't said on my own. The Father who lives in me does these things.

49Slide50
John 14:8-17,25-27
12
I tell you for certain that if you have faith in me, you will do the same things that I am doing. You will do even greater things, now that I am going back to the Father.

Ask me, and I will do whatever you ask. This way the Son will bring honour to the Father.
14
I will do whatever you ask me to do.
50Slide51
John 14:8-17,25-27
15
Jesus said to his disciples: If you love me, you will do as I command.
16
Then I will ask the Father to send you the Holy Spirit who will help you and always be with you.
17
The Spirit will show you what is true.
51Slide52
John 14:8-17,25-27
The people of this world cannot accept the Spirit, because they don't see or know him. But you know the Spirit, who is with you and will keep on living in you.

25
I have told you these things while I am still with you.

53Slide54
John 14:8-17,25-27
