Fire from Heaven “I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter that he may abide with you forever.” John 14-16 Pentecost, commonly called Whitsunday May 27, 2007 A.D.ABOUT PENTECOST (WHITSUNDAY)On the feast day of Pentecost, the disciples were all together in a room, talking perhaps of their plans to carry the good news of Jesus to the ends of the world. Suddenly a great wind came roaring around them, filling the house with its sound. It seemed to the disciples as they gazed at one another that each of them was touched by fire. They knew that Jesus was present with them. He came in wind and fire, and they were possessed with His Spirit which so filled them that the cosmopolitan crowd thought them drunk and were astonished to find that they could understand these simple Galileans in their own languages. MEMORIAL DAYAlmighty God, our heavenly Father, in whose hands are the living and the dead; We give thee thanks for all those thy servants who have laid down their lives in the service of our country. Grant to them thy mercy and the light of thy presence, that the good work which thou hast begun in them may be perfected; through Jesus Christ thy Son our Lord. Amen. PRAY FOR OUR TROOPSOur military forces need our prayers more than ever as they continue to serve overseas. Please remember them as they are separated from their families and pray they may be kept safe and be able to come home soon. BAPTISM OF BABY BOY MIHAILToday’s service is an all-important event in the life of baby boy Mihail whose Christian name God willing will be Noah William Mihail. Your prayers are welcomed and greatly appreciated. We welcome his godparent Michael Jay Holmes. Please join us after the service and help celebrate this wonderful occasion. THE CRYSTAL DARKNESS CAMPAIGNA community-wide event is taking place on Wednesday, May 30. Most of our local TV stations will block out regular programming at 7:30 p.m. to air the Crystal Darkness documentary. This program launches the Las Vegas Crystal Darkness Campaign, an education initiative being coordinated by the Community Interfaith Council and its partnering agencies. This initiative is intended to inform the community about the dangers and impacts of Crystal Methamphetamine. Methamphetamine use in Nevada is at epidemic proportions and is considered to be a root cause of crime, child abuse, homelessness, and serious health issues. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO LILLIE TOMPKINS! Please join us for birthday cake during coffee hour today. Lillie celebrated her 96th birthday on May 22nd. BUILDING FACELIFTMany thanks to those who have spent long hours giving our building a facelift just in time for the Diocesan Synod. This week Tracy Belt, Tom Covert, Jeff Field and Steven Saul repaired and power washed the stucco, cleaned the roof cross, caulked windows and doors, and painted the building exterior. Many thanks to Phillip Jones who cleaned, repaired and refinished the patio.
