  2. What is Pentecost? • Also known as Whitsunday, it is a Christian feast that celebrates the coming of the Holy Spirit. • It is celebrated on the Sunday 50 days after Easter. • It is regarded as the birthday of the Christian church and the start of the church mission to the world.

  3. Why did the Pentecost happen? • It was the promise of Jesus Christ that led to Pentecost. • He promised to put upon the Holy Spirit as our guide while He is not around.

  4. What happened during the coming of the Holy Spirit? • After the death of Jesus, the Apostles and a few disciples of Jesus went into hiding. On the day of the Pentecost, they were all together in one place. Suddenly, a rush of violent winds burst into the scene. Then from the heavens, tongues of fire started to rest upon Apostles, and soon they heard themselves speaking in different languages. They went out of their hiding place and started to preach the word of God.

What is the importance of Pentecost? • The apostles needed the Holy Spirit so they would be ready to tell the world about Jesus and the Kingdom of God. • The Holy Spirit helped the Apostles continue the work of Jesus.
