Pentecost, celebrated on the seventh Sunday after Easter, commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the apostles and other followers of Jesus Christ, as described in the New Testament. This event, occurring 50 days after Easter, marks the birth of the Christian Church and is often referred to as the “birthday of the Church.”
Pentecost is characterized by vibrant church services, including the reading of the Acts of the Apostles, hymns, and prayers. Many churches are adorned with red, symbolizing the fire of the Holy Spirit.
