It is the Sunday before Pentecost, known in England as Whutsun, or White Sunday. According to Christians, Pentecost is when the Holy Ghost part of God came down to Earth which is often depicted as a white dove descending through the sky. There are many hundreds of different forms of Christianity/churches associated with Pentecostalism which emphasise a direct personal relationship with God, baptism and speaking in tongues (gibberish), looked on by some as the 'happy-clappy' brigade.
