Breeze and Flames: The Story of Pentecost

Since the Ascension of the Messiah Jerusalem had been restless, uneasy. The Romans paced the streets with greater ferocity, and the Pharisees and Sadducees were even more determined to ferret out the followers of the Christ. So the fearful followers stayed silent and concealed until one day a mighty wind tunnelled through the alleyways of the city and stopped at the Cenacle, blowing under the door and through the whole room, until the shutters flew open and sunlight streamed in…

In this story, set after the Easter Joy of Our Lord’s Resurrection, we experience the despondency and confusion, but then, afterwards, the joyous zeal of the Apostles as the Holy Spirit descends upon them at Pentecost and fills them with his courage and enthusiasm to spread the Gospel.’

Included is a wordsearch, colouring-in pages, a list of the Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit, Scripture quotes at the back as well as a ‘Note to Parents and Children’ at the front of the book.

Beautifully illustrated
