I have never heard the term 'Whitmas' or 'Whit Week' (Season of Pentecost) before today.

Apparently it is much more commonly observed in the North of England.

The most popular activity is a Whit Walk, I'm told.

They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.

Acts 2:3-4

When the fills the hearts of God's people with "joy unspeakable and full of glory," or when he enables them to pray "with groanings that cannot be uttered," there is something that fills the meekest with awe, and draws them to the place where the saints are assembled.

I love the smell of incense in church; especially after everyone has left and the lights are off. I imagine this is what John smelled when he wrote Revelation, or what Isaiah smelled when he had h the vision of God’s throne.

Happy !

Peter's logic sometimes doesn't track with me. 🤣😂

Acts 2:14–15 (NRSV): But Peter, standing with the eleven, raised his voice and addressed them, “Men of Judea and all who live in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen to what I say. Indeed, these are not drunk, as you suppose, for it is only nine o’clock in the morning."

Okay Peter, whatever you say. Bless his heart.

In this 4th c. marble epitaph from , the appears as a dove in a circle of stars from which the waters of baptism flow onto a figure standing in a baptismal font.

The Latin inscription reads: "To an innocent spirit whom the Lord chose. The faithful one rests in peace. 10 days before the kalends of September."

on the Feast of .

⁦‪St Cuthbert’s Haydon Bridge‬⁩ has windows depicting the entire liturgical year from Christmas through to the Ascension.

But what about Pentecost? There’s no window showing the descent of the Spirit in tongues of fire, or of Jesus breathing the Spirit into his apostles.

And yet, Pentecost is clearly there, in this early 20th century window of the Works of Mercy that express the Holy Spirit’s agency in human acts of care & compassion.
