Pentecost Descent of Holy Spirit Framed Canvas Icon

This icon depicts the twelve apostles gathered together in an upper room as the Holy Spirit descends upon them in tongues of fire, a vacant place sometimes shown at the centre of their assembly to signify the presence of Christ Himself, invisible yet sustaining the gathering from within. Suddenly given the gift of speaking in languages not their own, the apostles were enabled to carry the Gospel to every nation gathered in Jerusalem that day, a reversal of the confusion of tongues recorded long before at Babel, now undone through the unity the Spirit brings. Pentecost is kept by the Church as the very birthday of itself as a visible community, the moment the apostles received the strength and the gifts needed to carry forward the mission entrusted to them by Christ. This icon stands as a reminder that the same Spirit poured out that day remains active within the Church to this hour, and it makes a meaningful gift for a confirmation, a baptism, or any occasion honouring the working of the Holy Spirit.

“And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire... and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost.” (Acts 2:3-4)

O Holy Spirit, Lord and Giver of Life, who didst descend upon the apostles in tongues of fire, descend also upon us, and grant us the same boldness to bear witness to Christ before the world. Amen.

This framed canvas makes a beautiful and cherished gift for baptisms, name days, Christmas, Easter, or any occasion where the Orthodox faith is celebrated.
