Pentecost (which is May 23rd this year) is among the most potent and spritual Christian holy days, involving direct encounter with Holy Spirit, but it has lost some of its power in modernity as it has become overshadowed by its cousins, Easter and Christmas. To fully comprehend the potency of Pentecost and what it can mean in your life, one must first understand the meaning of Pentecost to the first century Jew. THIS Sunday, May 16th, at 12:30 p.m. at Resurrection Parish at 1725 South 11th Avenue in Bozeman, Rabbi Ed Stafman, an ordained Rabbi and scholar of first century Judaism, Christianity & Greco-Roman religion, will walk us through the religious understanding of Pentecost from the Hebrew Bible through the first century so that we might better understand the meaning of Pentecost in our own lives.
Pastor Grant and I will be teaching a new members' class this Sunday - but I encourage you to go and hear Rabbi Ed. It should be very interesting!
