[If you can, sound a ram’s horn, or you can use a French Horn]

[Sounding of the horn!]

Hallelujah! The Lord be praised! This is the day of the Lord!

And the people proclaimed…..Hallelujah! This is the day of the Lord!

This is the day of the Lord! The day of Pentecost. The day we reaffirm our baptism in the power and presence of the Holy Spirit of Christ in our hearts and minds, lives and church. Praise the Lord! For you are God’s favored among God’s people.

It’s a day of celebration! A day of utmost joy! I invite you to take a moment…. Put your cares aside. Give your whole heart and mind and presence in this time in prayer and praise to Jesus Christ, the risen Lord, who has sent the Holy Spirit among us, and whom we celebrate this day.

Amen?

And the great people of God said –Amen!…
