Sometimes it is hard to see God's presence in the midst of chaos and diversity. And yet, the work of the Holy Spirit among us weaves people into one in ways we can only marvel at if we pause to consider it. Let's pause and wonder at God's gifts and promises but also God's power. Pastor Carolyn Hetrick and Pastor Scott Schul, of Grace Lutheran Church, State College, PA discuss the prayer and lessons for the Sunday of Pentecost:
Acts 2:1-4, 6-7, 12-17, 21
Psalm 104: 30-35b
Romans 8:14-17

Today's music: "Holy Spirit, Truth Divine" a public domain hymn sung by Grace Musicians and produced by Graham and Laurel Sanders.

Those early disciples knew so little and Jesus basically told them "Some things are not for you to know. The Spirit will guide you." Aren't we the same today? Their life of prayer and gathering strengthened them in uncharted days as did the Holy Spirit not always fully visible but powerfully at work. Unplug and recharge with us as we discuss Ascension Day, which is Thursday May 29, 2025.
