A prayer following Pentecost

"Pentecost"sculpture by Pastor Charles

From the Methodist Church in Britain:

The Day of Pentecost has ended. The tongues are quiet. The fire has faded. The prophet is silent. The crowd has dispersed. The first converts have gone. But. But the believers live on. The believers believe on. Yet sometimes we feel empty. In need of Your indwelling. Trouble us again with Your noisy presence.

Challenge our contentment. Stir us by Your Spirit.

We pray for a new Pentecost.
For welcoming worship rich with Your presence.
We pray for a new Pentecost.
For a learning, growing church.
We pray for a new Pentecost.
For compassion fired by passion.
We pray for a new Pentecost.
For more disciples of Jesus Christ.

Send Your Spirit. That She may restore, refresh, and renew. Amen.
