The Kingdom, Op 51

1 In the Upper Room. 
The disciples meet and the new Apostle, Matthias, is chosen.
2 At the Beautiful Gate. 
The two Marys remember Jesus's actions in the temple.
3 Pentecost. 
The disciples are visited by the Holy Spirit and preach to the multitudes.
4 The Sign of Healing. 
Peter and John heal the lame man and are imprisoned.
5 The Upper Room. 
Peter and John have been released; the disciples break bread and sing the Lord's Prayer.
