Pentecost!!! Wear Red, Bring Red Potted Flowers, & Stay for our Spring Clean-Up

This Sunday, May 23, is Pentecost, the day we celebrate the gift of the Holy Spirit to the church. We will have a new liturgy for the season and great new music with the choir returning.

The color of Pentecost is red, symbolizing the Spirit coming as tongues of fire upon the people present that day. Red is also the color of passion and of our life-blood. Let's join in this living symbol by wearing red Sunday. If you can, also bring a red potted flower to beautify the sanctuary during worship and then to beautify our church and retreat house yards afterwards in preparation for the big Memorial Day weekend and summer in Douglas!

We will have a BBQ Potluck in the Retreat House yard following worship. Then, if you can stay to help, we'll have a grand time at our annual Spring Clean-Up. Please wear or bring clothes you can work the yard in. Also, please bring any tools you think might be helpful -- garden spades, rakes, gloves, etc.

Let's make it look like the Spirit has swept over our property!
