Wear Red for Pentecost

Wearing red on Pentecost is an outward sign of the inward transformation by the Holy Spirit in each of our hearts. As “tongues of fire” came to rest on these disciples on that first Pentecost long ago, we gather together and then leave still blazing with the fire of hope God offers all through God’s Spirit. The red is a sign that the good news of Jesus came to all who were there in a language they could understand from people with whom they would not otherwise have communicated.

So, we extend a personal invitation to you: wear red. On Sunday, May 19, we invite you to join us in this celebration of the body of Christ. By wearing red, you proclaim the reality of grace, hope, and salvation in Jesus, making a visible statement of your faith.
