Christ is Risen! But then what?
The story continues of course.... with more exciting details and events to engage our young listeners. Christ shows what we would call "superhuman" qualities! He appears in the upper room to the Apostles twice when the doors are sealed shut. He is seen along the road to Emmaus, but in some sort of disguise to Luke and Cleopa, until He breaks bread with them and is recognized essentially in the Eucharist (see the lesson plan here). Then forty days later the disciples stand in awe as Christ is taken up before their own very eyes into the sky on His return to the Father. What could possibly come next for the followers of Christ?
“You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you”

*** This year, I'm finally committed to bringing the prayers with me on Pentecost Sunday, because they are always in a language I cannot fully understand! ***

Thanks for sharing this Pentecost lesson. I have found lately that even though I am a fluent Greek speaker, I don;t get the full efffect of a lot of the prayers. When I hear them in English or read them, they click more for me. Have a great day!
