Tomorrow is a public holiday called Indian Arrival Day. Long ago, many people came from India and other countries to Trinidad and Tobago on great big ships. Every group of people that came to Trinidad brought with them their ways of life and practices, or culture. This means people spoke different languages, wore different clothes, ate different foods, and liked different things. Many of those things came together to give us the culture we have in our country today.
Colour and practice your cutting skills with the following:
Pentecost:
As the disciples sat in a room and prayed, a strong wind filled the whole place. What does a strong wind feel like? Take out your paper boats and blow on it very gently, not moving it. Now blow on the end of the boat very hard with all your might. Does it move? Blow very hard on your hand. Can you feel that? Imagine that's what a strong wind feels like.
Then there appeared a tongue of fire above their heads:
What could it be? It was the Holy Spirit! They were then able to speak other languages and do great things, bringing people together through the Holy Spirit. This day is remembered as Pentecost. Pentecost will be celebrated on Sunday. Have a special meal with your family. Do an activity together. Say a prayer and/or watch the Mass together. We will continue talking about Pentecost on Monday.
