A fire-breathing vicar has lit up his Gloucestershire church with a party trick he learnt in order to entertain friends at barbecues.
The Reverend Nick Davies, of St Philip and St James' Church in Cheltenham, was marking Pentecost.
"I don't get many ooh's and aah's and gasps during my sermon but I did this morning," he said.
At Pentecost the church celebrates the descending of the Holy Spirit for the first time on Jesus's disciples.
The Bible says the disciples were together when they were filled with the Holy Spirit and what appeared to be tongues of fire came to rest on each of them.
Banners moved
Mr Davies has never accidentally set fire to anything but he said the church banners were moved to the far end of the building just in case.
