SUNDAY, MAY 21
9:30 a.m.-11:00 a.m.
MESSY CHURCH
HOLY SPIRIT
Jesus lived on earth for 33 years. He was fully God, but he was also fully human, which meant he could only be in one place at a time and only impact a few lives at a time.
Before he left, he said to his disciples, “It is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.” John 16:7 ESV
The Holy Spirit is the Helper Jesus promised! The Holy Spirit was sent by Jesus to remind the world of what Jesus taught and did. Pentecost was the first time anyone had ever had God’s Spirit inside them instead of just on them or with them. The first time the Holy Spirit came to live inside people was wildly obvious, but the Holy Spirit wasn’t just for the first disciples. He is in every single person who follows Jesus. He doesn’t normally come in flames and wind, but he lives inside you, as the Helper Jesus promised to send.
Through storytelling, games, and crafts we will explore the person of the Holy Spirit and the gifts of the Spirit. Our activities time will be followed by interactive worship and brunch in Fellowship Hall.
