Acts 2
Acts 2 is a part of the Bible that talks about what happened to some of Jesus' friends after he went back to heaven. One day, they were all together in one place, waiting for something important to happen, just like when you wait for your birthday party to start.
Suddenly, something amazing happened! They heard a loud noise like a big wind and saw flames of fire appearing above their heads. But don't worry, they weren't hurt. This was actually a special gift from God called the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit helped Jesus' friends and gave them special abilities to talk to people from different countries and understand them, even though they spoke different languages. This was really important because there were many people visiting Jerusalem at that time for a big festival, and Jesus' friends wanted to tell them about Jesus and his teachings.
So, Jesus' friends went outside and started talking to everyone, using the different languages they knew thanks to the Holy Spirit. People were amazed and impressed because they could all understand each other even though they were from different places.
Many people listened to Jesus' friends and became believers in Jesus, and they all started meeting together regularly to learn more about God and Jesus. This was the beginning of the Christian church, and it all started because of the special gift of the Holy Spirit that Jesus' friends received on that day.
