The Ascension and What It Means for Today’s Disciples
Fr. Hugh Gillespie, SMM
T he Ascension of Jesus Christ
Today we celebrate the Ascension of Jesus. I will be with you to the end of the ages. What does the bible tell us about the Ascension? Jesus gave explicit orders and sent his disciples out to preach the Gospel. But He told them not to be in a hurry, but to wait for the Holy Spirit. What is the Lord telling us? During the pandemic, how should His Words impact us? Listen to the Gospel and Homily from Ascension Thursday.
