Icon: Pentecost

Pentecost marks the descent of the Holy Spirit upon Mary and the Twelve in this 8" x 10" wooden icon, rendered in early Byzantine style. Tongues of fire symbolize the Spirit's transformative power as the Church receives its mission to proclaim Christ to all nations. This icon celebrates the birth of the Christian community and the fulfillment of Christ's promise. Handcrafted by Conception Abbey monks through their prayerful vocation, it invites you to receive the Spirit's gifts of courage, wisdom, and apostolic fire.
