Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and enkindle in them the fire of your love.
Balloons, Doves, Kites, Praise, Prayer, Worship, wearing the color red, Fellowship and Celebrations were what filled our morning worship services this morning on the feast of Pentecost.
(Doves are symbolic of the Holy Spirit, and the color red symbolizes the fire of the Holy Spirit)
We made dove cutouts and people wrote prayers, inspiring messages and scripture passages on them. I filled over 100 helium balloons, attached the doves on ribbons and we had them hanging in the worship space during the services, afterward we went outside and released them all.
Prior to the service, members of the parish used the dove kites we usually fly during our processional when we were in our regular church building, the ceilings there are very high and it's fun to use these dove kites there, but at the new temporary site, the ceilings don't allow that...but they did gather interest as they were flown outside.
