<strong>News</strong> from the Vicarage ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ LED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT The Easter season lasts for 50 glorious days. We have 40 days to observe Lent but 50 days to celebrate Easter and the resurrection of Jesus which gives us our sure and certain Christian hope that we too will be resurrected ourselves when we die. The season ends on the Feast of Pentecost (meaning ‘the fiftieth day’), which falls this year on the 27 th May. Pentecost celebrates the coming of God the Holy Spirit on those first disciples who were gathered together when ‘suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind’ and ‘divided tongues, as of fire appeared among them ...’ (Acts 2.2,3). Because of this reference to fire, the liturgical colour for Pentecost (and for other occasions associated with the Holy Spirit) is red which sometimes extends to the colour of the flowers in our churches as well. The Holy Spirit enabled those first disciples to speak in different languages so that they were able to tell all who were listening, regardless of their native language, about the wonderful works of God in the creation of the universe, in becoming a human being in Jesus and in making it possible for us human beings to share for ever in his divine life. The Holy Spirit is the third ‘person’ of God the Holy Trinity, the one that gives us life and that makes Jesus known in the world today. At our baptism, we receive the gift of the Holy Spirit to enable us to live a new kind of life, a life which is joined with the resurrected life of Jesus. Whenever we pray, we are able to do so only in the power of the Holy Spirit. Whenever we read scripture, we are able to begin to understand what God is saying to us in it only through the guiding of the Holy Spirit. Whenever we gather to worship God, we are to offer acceptable worship only through the Holy Spirit preparing our hearts and minds and inspiring our worship. The Feast of Pentecost at the end of the great Christmas and Easter cycle is the start of that season (which lasts through to the autumn) when we reflect upon the significance of those two great defining events in our history that Christmas and Easter celebrate. Jesus promised us that the Holy Spirit would lead us into all truth. May he indeed guide our reflections over the coming months.
