Pentecost during semi-quarantine

 Pilgrim Congregational, West 14th Cleveland (both formerly Jennings Road)

Driving by on West 14th, i noticed the service. By the time the car was turned around and parked nearby, i missed my foto by a half minute. It is Pentecost Sunday, the birthday of the Church. The day's liturgical color in the west is red. I am thinking, the red banner was folded and tucked up by the wind. Next to the speaker, on the porch of the church, is a fan pointed upwards, with red and yellow streamers. When the music was playing a few seconds ago, the ribbons took the form of tongues of fire. It looked good.

It was well before noon, near eleven, and the temperature was 85°F with a full sun. The leaf canopy was perfect to create shade, and block traffic noise. West 14th is being re-tarred, and is reduced to two lanes closest to Pilgrim. Parts of nearby Clark, and Scranton also have road work. This makes the corner of West 14th and Starkweather busier.

And when the days of the Pentecost were accomplished, they were all together in one place:  And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a mighty wind coming: and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. And there appeared to them parted tongues, as it were of fire: and it sat upon every one of them. — Acts of the Apostles ii. 1-3.
