Pentecost

Jesus's helpers gathered in a room when suddenly a big gust of wind flew straight through the house shaking the room. And there was fire above all their heads and they started to speak in different languages. The non-believers thought this was a joke but then Peter told them they were filled with the Holy Spirit

The fire represents the wisdom and power of the Holy Spirit.

The dove represents the peace of the Holy Spirit.

If you turn my picture sideways, it goes from being a flame to a dove.
