Celebrate Whitsunday

Special church services are held on Whitsunday in Mexico. The color red is used in churches to symbolize the day Jesus’ disciples were blessed with “tongues of fire”, or the gift of speaking in other languages, by the Holy Spirit.

Public Life

Pentecost is a religious observance and not a federal public holiday in Mexico. It falls on a Sunday, which is a non-working day for many workers.

About Whitsunday

Pentecost occurs seven weeks after Easter Sunday. It celebrates the story of the Holy Spirit passing on the gift of tongues to a group of Jesus' followers. It is believed that the disciples were given the supernatural ability to speak in languages they had not previously known.
