The feast of Pentecost is celebrated by many Christians as the day the Holy Spirit descended upon the apostles, marking the birth of the Church. Celebrations often include special church services featuring prayers, hymns, and readings from The Bible, particularly the account of Pentecost in the Book of Acts. Some communities may also hold festive gatherings, share meals, and engage in activities that emphasize the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Additionally, decorations in red, symbolizing the fire of the Holy Spirit, are common in churches during this time.
