God sends the Holy Spirit

Acts 2:1-13

After Jesus went back to heaven, His friends prayed and stayed together in Jerusalem. One morning, a sound like a strong wind blowing filled the house where they were staying. Something that looked like a small fire sat on top of each person’s head! The Holy Spirit Jesus promised had finally come!

There were people from many different places staying in Jerusalem. These people spoke many different languages. When they heard the noise, they gathered around the house to see what was going on.

Jesus’ friends began to speak in other languages, telling all the people about Jesus. The people in Jerusalem were amazed because they heard what Jesus’ friends were saying about Jesus in their own languages! Many people believed in Jesus and started to tell other people about Jesus, too.
