The Meaning of the Pentecost Icon
Pentecost is one of the Twelve Great Feasts, celebrated on the fiftieth day of Pascha. Acts describes the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the gathered disciples, with tongues as of fire and speech in other languages through the Spirit’s gift.
The apostles proclaimed the mighty works of God to people gathered in Jerusalem. The Church celebrates Pentecost as the fulfillment of Christ’s promise of the Holy Spirit and the empowering of the apostolic mission.
The Holy Spirit continues to give life to the Church. This icon calls us to remember the gift received in Baptism and Chrismation and to bear its fruit in prayer, unity, and love.

Caring for your icon
Keep your icon out of direct sunlight and away from damp walls and heat. Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth, and never use water or cleaning products on the gold leaf. If you keep a vigil lamp or candles nearby, leave space so soot does not settle on the icon.
Having your icon blessed
Many Orthodox Christians bring a new icon to their parish priest to be blessed before placing it in the home. Just bring it with you to church and ask Father after the service.
