What event is commemorated on Pentecost?

Explanation:
Pentecost commemorates the gift of the Holy Spirit to Jesus' disciples and the start of the church's mission to spread the gospel. It’s observed 50 days after Easter, following Jesus’ resurrection. On that day, the Holy Spirit came upon the believers, often described as tongues of fire, empowering them to speak in different languages and boldly proclaim Jesus to people from many nations. This empowerment marks the moment the church begins its mission to witness to all nations. This event is different from the birth of Jesus (celebrated at Christmas), the crucifixion (Good Friday), and the ascension (about 40 days after Easter).
