Come, Holy Spirit,
fill the hearts of your

Message                  Spirit Means Conspire”                 Rev. John Song

The Holy Spirit is the Third Person of the Trinity. The Holy Spirit is an invigorating Being coursing through our veins. It is a vitalizing energy of God that renews us every day of our lives. And it conspires to make us more than we are now.

John 20:19-23
Jesus Appears to the Disciples following His Resurrection

“When it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and the doors were locked where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.” After he said this, he showed them his hands and his side. Then the disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.”

“When we commit, the universe conspires to help us.”
~ Paulo Coelho, a Brazilian writer
