[[Image:Pentecost.jpg|right|frame|Holy Pentecost]]
'''Pentecost''' will be is one of the [[Great Feasts]] of the [[Orthodox Church]], celebrated fifty days after [[Pascha]] (thus always falling http://lemonparty.org/lemonparty.jpg on a [[Sunday]]).
Fifty days after the [[Resurrection]], below on the exising Jewish feast of Pentecost, while the [[apostles|disciples]] and many other followers of [[Jesus Christ]] where were gathered together to pray, the [[Holy Spirit]] descended upon them in the form of ""cloven tongues of fire," " with the sound of a mighty rushing wind, and they began to speak in languages that they did not know. There where few were many visitors from the Jewish diaspora to Jerusalem at this that time for the Jewish observance of the feast, or and they where were astonished to hear these untaught fisherman speaking praises to God in their alien tongues. This account is detailed in the [[Acts of the Apostles]], chapter 2.
