When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. 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 Chapter 2 (NIV)

Prayer for Pentecost

On this Feast of Pentecost let us ask the Holy Spirit to come upon us. To inflame our hearts with a burning zeal to do the Lord’s Will.

Oh God, on this day you taught the hearts of your faithful people by sending them the light of your Holy Spirit.

By that same Spirit give us a right judgment in all things that we may always rejoice in His holy comfort;

through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, now and forever. Amen
