Pentecost Sunday School Song
Wind and Fire
Written by Carolyn Warvel
(Sing to the tune of Frère Jacques)
Tongues of fire,
Tongues of fire,
Mighty wind,
Mighty wind,
The Holy Ghost is coming,
The Holy Ghost is coming,
Praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord!

1. Before class cut pieces of crepe paper into 3 feet lengths. Use red and orange to make the fire sticks and white and blue to make the wind sticks.
2. Staple four or five pieces of crepe paper to jumbo craft sticks and then cover the staples with tape. Make one fire and one wind pompom for each child.
3. As you sing "tongues of fire" have your children wave their fire pompoms up and down.
As you sing "mighty wind" have your children wave their wind pompoms side to side.
Here is another version of the song sent in by Jonathan Foster:
Flames of Fire, Flames of Fire
Mighty Wind, Mighty Wind
The Holy Spirit’s coming, the Holy Spirit’s coming
With his power, with his power

I did the lesson on Pentecost and the kids had a lot of fun decorating their spiral twist tongue of fire. I did two different kinds of head bands. One set was for the kids to wear with the memory verse that I used from another lesson book of mine and then the other sets we matched up the memory verse (we did that about three or four times).
This week we are going to finish up the lesson and do the coloring picture and glue tissue paper flames above the people's heads and finish making the head bands memory verse. I think the kids really enjoyed making these crafts and learning about what Pentecost means. Denise King My preschool Sunday school class recently did the "Pentecost" lesson. The children loved singing the "Tongues of Fire" song. For a craft we did Paint Your Own Wind Chimes. Thanks, Ella
