Protestant and Anglican churches observe Pentecost on May 17, and Orthodox on June 21. In a message to be read in many languages in WCC member churches, the World Council called on Christians to rediscover their unity through deeper study of the Bible, “whether this be done individually or together.” Pentecost marks the descent of the Holy Ghost on the Disciples as they were gathered after His Resurrection. It is an occasion for emphasizing church unity and witness. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (WC-2D-64-NAB)
