Pentecost Is This Sunday
This Sunday, May 24, 2026, we celebrate Pentecost, often called the birthday of the Christian Church. Pentecost falls 50 days after Easter and marks the fulfillment of Jesus' promise to send the Holy Spirit to his followers as our helper, comforter, and guide. As one of the principal feast days in The Episcopal Church, Pentecost is the joyful culmination of Eastertide and leads us into the long season after Pentecost, also known as Ordinary Time.
On this holy day, Christ Episcopal Church and Mother of the Savior Church will celebrate together in a joint Holy Eucharist at 11:00 a.m. Immediately following the Holy Eucharist, we will bless the Community Garden, giving thanks for God's creation and for the ministry of growing and sharing food in our community. After the garden blessing, all are invited to a potluck in the Parish Hall. We hope you will join us for this beautiful celebration of the Holy Spirit and our shared life in Christ.
