This is a celebration of the gift of the Holy Spirit to the early Christian Church, often referred to as 'the Church's Birthday!'In the Celtic Church tradition, the Holy Spirit is a wild goose, rather than a dove. Wild geese are noisy and live in community. There's an interesting article about this here: https://www.ncregister.com/blog/wild-goose
Marton Churchyard is a great place to watch the sun rise on Easter morning!Inside the church there is time for a cuppa while we wait for the sun to shine through the east window (above the altar). <br>Finally, for those willing to wait, the sunlight pours through the small coloured stained glass window above the arch.<br>Weather permitting, of course!
