In celebration of our very special Pentecost weekend  Simon arranged with his Rotary colleague, Jan Blenkinsop, to turn Christ Church red for Pentecost evening  Sunday 19th May.

Jan put gel sheets over our floodlights which produced a red result representing the fire of the Holy Spirit. When this project was planned a few weeks ago, the hopes were that we would celebrate the Swindon Town promotion at Wembley. But sadly this was not to be. Whereas the gift of the Holy Spirit is guaranteed , sports results are not. It’s the presence of your Spirit, Lord, we need – the moving of the Spirit Lord, we pray, across this town.

Thanks Simon
