Pentecost Crossword
Wouldn't it have been wonderful to be there when the Holy Spirit came on the day of Pentecost? Back then, Christians did not have church buildings. They met in homes. There were no pew books or Bibles. They could not pass their faith to their children in church classrooms using our books, videos, and music.
Read about the early church in Acts 2 to find words to complete this crossword puzzle. Words marked with "A" go across; words with "D" go down. Some clues contain more than one word, they should be used in the crossword with no spaces.
