Ascension Day is the 40th day of Easter.

It occurs 39 days after Easter Sunday and is one of
the earliest Christian festivals dating back to 68AD.

We read in the New Testament, that Jesus Christ
met several times with His disciples during the 40
days after His resurrection to instruct them on how
to carry out His teachings.

On the day of His ascension, Jesus commissions His disciples to continue His work. He promises the gift
of the Holy Spirit, and then He is no longer among
them in the flesh.

The Ascension is therefore closely connected with
the theme of mission.

This season of joy and brightness is represented in
our use of white or gold liturgical decorations and vestments.

Incense will be used during this service and Holy Communion will be celebrated.

Pentecost, also known as Whitsunday, the name comes from the Greek word "pentekoste" which means fiftieth as Pentecost Sunday takes place on the 50th day of Easter.

This year it falls on Sunday 8th June and we will have the opportunity to celebrate Holy Communion at our neighbouring Church of St Lawrence at Tallington.

This Christian holy day commemorates the coming of the Holy Spirit in the form of flames to the Apostles and other followers of Jesus Christ, as recorded in the New Testament in Acts 2:1–13, taken from the fifth book of the New Testament of the Bible and this scripture will be read to us today.

The symbols of Pentecost are those of the Holy Spirit and include flames, fire, wind, and a dove.
