Paying attention to someone, noticing<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>rather than ignoring them, increases that person\u2019s sense of connectedness. Greeting someone, holding the door for them, blessing them after a sneeze\u2014all are simple ways to notice.<\/p>\n<p>Naming someone accurately, as well as \u00a0using the pronouns they\u2019ve asked you to use, deepens that connection. Think of the way that positive nicknames function to increase community. In sports, people called me \u201cTuck,\u201d short for my last name. My grandfather affectionately called me \u201cDrewser.\u201d \u00a0These namings showed me I was not just noticed, but appreciated.<\/p>\n<p>The Springtide research refers to the third dimension, being known, as \u201cunreserved acceptance.\u201d Even more than being noticed and named, being known in<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>a community gives reassurance. This might happen when I recall details a Gen Z student shared with me, or \u00a0trust them to use their passions to contribute to the community\u2019s work.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>There are some troubling statistics in this work. \u00a072% of male participants felt most adults openly supported them at school. \u00a0Only 66% of female participants and 51% of nonbinary participants felt that way. In other words, half of nonbinary students don\u2019t feel like they belong, and more that a quarter of male and female students agree. Further, only 18% of all respondents felt safe enough to talk about things that matter most to them at school, and even fewer Black or African American students, 11%, felt safe enough to do so.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Clearly, we have holy work to do in our schools to notice, name, and know Gen Z students.<\/p>\n<h4><b>Discussion Questions<\/b><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>What are ways that you can notice, name, and know people in your life who might not get the attention they need to thrive?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li>What do we need to change about our schools to ensure that all people can feel like they belong?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><b>Day of Pentecost<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bible.oremus.org\/?ql=520004366\">Acts 2:1-21<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bible.oremus.org\/?ql=520004567\">Romans 8:14-17<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bible.oremus.org\/?ql=520004452\">John 14:8-17 [25-27]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>(Text links are to <a href=\"http:\/\/bible.oremus.org\/\">Oremus Bible Browser<\/a>.

Most notably, tongues of fire appear upon the disciples heads. I\u2019m sure that must have been a startling sight! Just as surprising, though, was the gift of speaking different languages, also called tongues. Clearly the Holy Spirit has a sense of humor. People from all over the Roman empire arrive in Jerusalem for the festival. \u00a0They bring their native languages and expect to hear only Greek (the empire\u2019s common language), along with Aramaic and Hebrew (the local languages of Jerusalem at the time). Instead, far from their home, they hear a message of good news in the language most familiar to their hearts.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Book of Acts \u00a0doesn\u2019t say the listeners felt like they belonged. \u00a0It says they were \u201camazed and perplexed.\u201d They didn\u2019t expect to hear Judeans speaking languages common to minority peoples throughout the empire. In this short story, they\u2019re noticed by the disciples, named by the author, and known with words that speak directly to their experience. Rather than requiring a translation, the good news comes to them naturally, through the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n<p>We can\u2019t force the miracle of tongues.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>That\u2019s God\u2019s work. But this sign of the Holy Spirit reveals a divine priority we can practice. \u00a0We can do the hard work of translating the good news into the lived experience of those we encounter, rather than forcing them to adapt to our ways. In fact, we <i>should<\/i> do that. Our work\u2014how we worship, how we preach, how we teach, what we study, who we invite, where we budget funds to be spent\u2014should be shaped by the people God calls us to serve. Disciples unwilling to speak the language of other nations would have done the gospel no good on that first Pentecost. Similarly, a ministry unwilling to adapt in order to meet the needs of the people God brings to them refuses the work of the Spirit in their midst.<\/p>\n<h4><b>Discussion Questions<\/b><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Speaking in tongues is a spiritual gift which still happens \u00a0in different parts of the church. Have you or someone you know ever been given that gift? Share your experience.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li>What\u2019s the difference between a miracle that God has done in the past and work that we\u2019re called to do in the present?<\/li>\n<li>How do you imagine those early Christians developed a sense of belonging with those who first heard the Gospel on Pentecost?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><b>Activity Suggestions<\/b><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Play a game intent on decoding. Decrypto is a table-top team game that requires two teams. \u00a0It can be played with a few as four total players but can grow without limit. For individuals, try Draw Your Words, similar to Pictionary. Gather a set of simple words that aren\u2019t as simple to draw. Have participants take turns trying to draw one of the words (without using any language) while the rest of the group tries to guess the intended word. Then follow with a discussion on the importance of sharing knowledge in ways that everyone can understand.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Use U.S. Census Bureau data (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.census.gov\/quickfacts\/fact\/table\/US\/PST045221\">https:\/\/www.census.gov\/quickfacts\/fact\/table\/US\/PST045221<\/a>) to better understand the communities in your Zip Code. Have participants free write for five minutes to envision what kind of adaptation, translation, or innovation God might be calling your ministry to undertake.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Community Mapping asks people to draw a map of their community that highlights the places of power or value. These could be banks and barbershops, grocery stores and city parks, government buildings and historical landmarks. Have each participant draw their own community map on a presentation-size sticky note. The point isn\u2019t to be geographically accurate, but instead, to visualize how different people understand influence at play in your communities. Consider each person\u2019s map and then discuss how you might engage those parts of the community to better understand the people your ministry serves. The Highlander Research and Education Center has a fuller description of community mapping available in their \u201cMapping Our Futures\u201d curriculum, available here: <a href=\"https:\/\/highlandercenter.org\/our-impact\/economics-governance\/\">https:\/\/highlandercenter.org\/our-impact\/economics-governance\/<\/a>. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><b>Closing Prayer<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>God of Welcome, send a spirit of generosity upon your people. When we resist giving up things that no longer serve your good news, soften our hearts in ways which open us to your mission. Inspire us to adapt to the people you bring into our lives, so that all know they belong to your beloved community.
