The disciples of Jesus went to the room upstairs where they were staying, ... All these were constantly devoting themselves to prayer, together with certain women, including Mary the mother of Jesus, as well as his brothers. (Acts 1 v13-14)
When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. Divided tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them ability. (Acts 2 v1-4)

Wednesday evening, 31 May, people who have high regard for Jesus are gathering to wait in prayer like the first disciples. It's a 2 hour vigil from 5.30 to 7.30pm in St Barnabas Chapel (aka Barnies), beside Nativity Church.
Everyone is welcome for any part, or all, of this 2 hour vigil. This time of prayer will focus on knowing the Holy Spirit in our lives as we remember and celebrate the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the disciples at Pentecost, 2000 years ago.
The Nativity Care Cell who prepared this have been prayerfully working on it for months. I invite you to come with me, and join them, "devoting yourselves to prayer" (maybe after the 5.30pm half hour combined churches prayer at Blenheim Baptist.)
