Definición

  • Pentecostalism is a Protestant movement that originated at the turn of the twentieth century in the United States but since has spread to other countries, particularly in Latin America. The movement takes it name from the Christian feast of Pentecost, which celebrates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the disciples of Jesus.
