THE ASCENSION OF THE LORD
MAY 17, 2026 - BUT WHERE SHOULD WE LOOK?
As we read the Gospels and relive the mystery of the God-experience in our daily lives, we always look forward to our rebirth into the life of the Spirit at Pentecost. The Ascension story, however, is a mission given to us. The original fire of the Gospel must burn in us. This gift must bring excitement, passion, and courage to us. We must shake off complacency, intolerance, and indifference. This didn’t come easily to the first disciples. Nor does it for us.
