Words help us communicate. A few weeks ago, Deacon Nina asked you to share your thoughts on Pentecost in the form of haiku poetry.

Here are a few of the poems you came up with:

 

Arlyn Tolzmann

The Holy Spirit 
blows into our lives each day,
moving us to serve.

 

Cliff Hill

Asked to fish for men
Holy Spirit equip us
Hook, line, and sinker

  

Hugh Drinkwitz

Jesus: back again.
Holy cow, he’s on fire!
Anyways, let’s eat.

It’s been 40 days;
When’s that Christ guy coming back?
Wait! Look in the sky.

What’s that in the sky?
A bird or perhaps a plane?
Nope, it’s Jesus Christ.

 

Kay Drinkwitz

Ninety Precious Days
From Death to Resurrection
Everlasting Life

Fifty Days Later
In Flames Jesus did Arrive
The Birth of our Church

For God So Loved Us
That His Son Laid Down His Life
So That We May Live

We are Easter Folks
Pentecost in Pandemic
Hope and Love Prevail

 

Summer Schwintek

Fill my heart with you
Charity, joy, peace, patience
Keep me in your grace

Your divine truth, Lord
Let me bear my cross with you
Perfect my soul, Lord

 

Joyce Getchell

Love, Joy, Peace, Patience
Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness
Enter homes and hearts!

 

Jennifer Tolzmann

Holy Spirit Come!
Give us breath to reach the world!
May we serve! Amen!

 

Judy Klemm

Moonlight on water 
Image broke as wind makes waves 
Yet moonlight remains. 

But then, confronted with new emotions, you had another topic to address: 

Nate Bergengren

As the city burns
Light a fire in us as well
Justice for George Floyd

Sharon Hill

Come Holy Spirit
Unite Voices and colors 
Together as one
