"There are some days in the Church’s year that do not merely ask for our

attention; they invite our wonder. Pentecost is one of them. Christmas brings

the child. Easter brings the empty tomb. But Pentecost brings the fire, the

wind, the very breath of God. It is the day when the Lord filled his disciples

with holy boldness and sent them out as witnesses to Jesus Christ.

Today at St Oswald’s, Dean, we gave thanks for that same Holy Spirit still at work in

the Church and in the world. It was a joy to gather for worship on this beautiful feast

day and to celebrate God’s presence among us in prayer, fellowship, and Holy

Communion. May the Spirit continue to renew, strengthen, and guide us

The fire of heaven has not gone out, and the breath of Christ still moves among his

people, renewing, strengthening, and drawing us forward.

We look forward to welcoming you at St. Oswald’s Church soon.

God bless,"

Revd Christina
