Ascension of the Lord / 7th Sunday of Easter





May 16 & 17
Celebration of the Ascension of the Lord
7th Sunday of Easter

The readings from today show us the mission that Jesus left for each of us.  The first reading and the Gospel tell the story of the ascension into heaven of Jesus.  The message is clear for all of us left both at the time of Christ and today.  Jesus said, “Go into the whole world and proclaim the gospel to every creature…”  The call to each of us is one of humility, gentleness and bearing with one another as we do our part to proclaim the Word of God in our lives.
