Pentecost, also known as Whitsunday, is a significant Christian holiday celebrated on the seventh Sunday after Easter. In Canada, it commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and other followers of Jesus Christ as described in the Acts of the Apostles.
Liturgical Celebrations: Many churches across Canada hold special services where red vestments are worn to symbolize the fire of the Holy Spirit. The liturgy often includes readings from Acts 2:1-21, singing hymns, and prayers.
Confirmation Services: In some denominations, it is a traditional day for Confirmation ceremonies, where individuals affirm their faith.
In general society, Pentecost may pass without widespread secular recognition or specific cultural practices beyond those observed by religious communities.
