Yesterday was Pentecost Sunday. Although we Quakers don’t follow the liturgical calendar, this has become one of my favorite days. And we did focus our attention on the birth of the church in yesterday’s worship service.
I am posting here the Pentecost prayer from the Celtic Daily Prayer book. The prayer is entitled, “Invocation of the Holy Spirit.”
Most powerful Holy Spirit
come down
upon us
and subdue us
From heaven
where the ordinary
is made glorious
and glory seems
but ordinary,
bathe us
with the brilliance
of Your light
like dew.
