The Sunday of Pentecost marks the fulfillment of a prophecy. Time is ordered for a Vigil of Light.
Joel 3:1-5 – The Day of the Lord
1 It shall come to pass. I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions.
2 Even upon your male and female servants, in those days, I will pour out my spirit.
3 I will set signs in the heavens and on the earth, blood, fire, and columns of smoke;
4 The sun will darken, the moon turn blood-red,
before the day of the LORD arrives, that great and terrible day.
5 Then everyone who calls upon the name of the LORD will escape harm.
For on Mount Zion there will be a remnant, as the LORD has said,
And in Jerusalem survivors whom the LORD will summon.
