I always enjoy Pentecost - it can be a great excuse for playful acts of worship, and it's always an excuse to wear bright colours!

This year, the highlights included...

• The Lord's Prayer in Bengali
• Scripture in English, French and Spanish
• Prayers written or drawn on 'flames'

I talked about the Pentecost as a day when people understood what was being said, and then returned to their own countries and cultures with their own languages... rather than an 'undoing' of Babel and 'restoration' of uniformity, we have a celebration of diversity, a culture of inclusion and celebration, that delights in the differences that make humanity what it is.

If we can live that out, then I think we have caught something of what God was up to on that day.
