Ascension

26/5/2012

0 Comments

 
The Ascension of the Lord which we celebrate today reminds us of the “Way to Heaven”.

Jesus returns to His father so that the Holy Spirit can be given to us through the Church and the Sacraments.

Over this week we need to pray especially for what we know we need. “Ask and you shall receive, knock and it will be opened for you”.

The fruits of the Holy Spirit include peace, kindness, self-control, trust, hope and gentleness. Over this next week allow yourself some time to come into our church and pray. I am leaving the church open throughout the day so that it can be used for its proper purpose, the worship of Almighty God.


Quote to think about:

“…everything related to the Eucharist should be marked by beauty”
Benedict XVI
Sacramentum Caritatis.
