On May 24, the church celebrates the Feast of Pentecost. It occurs on the 50th day after Easter, and commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit. The Biblical narrative describes a mighty rushing wind and tongues as of fire that rested on all those gathered. Once a year the parishioners of St. Mary's experience the descent of the fire of the Holy Spirit in the Pentecost streamers designed and constructed by Judy Alison.
