Pentecost Service at Saint Peter’s AME Church – May 23
All are invited to a Pentecost Celebration on Saturday, May 23, 2026, at 12 p.m. at Saint Peter’s AME Church (401 East 41st Street, Minneapolis), where alum and board member Tracey Gibson is pastor. This sacred gathering promises to be a powerful time of worship, renewal, and Holy Spirit empowerment as we celebrate the outpouring of God’s Spirit upon the church. Pentecost reminds us that the church was born not in comfort but in power—birthed in unity, prayer, and divine fire. In a season where the church is called to be both prophetic and pastoral, this celebration will strengthen our collective witness and rekindle our commitment to kingdom. Bishop Frederick Wright Sr. will preach at this significant occasion. The Saint Paul-Minneapolis District (AME) would be deeply honored by your presence and participation.
