Red is a power color and is appropriate for use on Pentecost Sunday. On this day we remember the power and fire of “the Lord and Giver of Life\,” who revealed himself as the promised one. The color red communicates the motif of strength-strength and power the Holy Spirit gives in order for God’s people to call on the name of Jesus Christ and share that powerful name with others. \n\nThree-Year Series C and One-Year Series\nScripture readings\n\nPsalm 143\n\n\nGen. 11:1–9\n\n\nActs 2:1–21\n\n\nJohn 14:23–31\n\nLectionary summary\nThe Holy Spirit Gives Peace\nFollowing the flood\, Noahs descendants failed to spread out and fill the earth as God had spoken. Rather\, they exalted themselves; with one language and the same words (Gen. 11:1)\, they spoke proudly and arrogantly. The Lord humbled them by confusing the language of all the earth\,dividing and dispersing the people (Gen. 11:9). That dispersal was reversed on Pentecost Day (the 50th day of Easter)\, when God caused the one Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ to be preached in a multitude of languages. At this sound the multitude came together (Acts 2:6)\, for the preaching of Christ is the primary work of the Holy Spirit\, whereby He gathers people from all nations into one Church. The Holy Spirit teaches and brings to our remembrance the words of Jesus\, which are the words of the Father who sent Him. These words bestow forgiveness and peace to those who keep and hold on to them in love for Jesus. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled\, neither let them be afraid” (John 14:27). \n\nLCMS Worship\n\nlcms.org/worship\n\n\nWorship planning resources\n\n\nSubscribe to monthly resources email\n\nFind church near me
