Ascension of the Lord,  - Year B

 

Dear Friends,

This Sunday we celebrate the solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord – the time when Jesus’ earthly ministry comes to a completion and he returns to the Father.  The first reading from the Acts of the Apostles (1:1-11) and the Gospel (Mark 16:15-20) reflect this event.  In being ‘taken up’ by another power, we see that life is about to change drastically for the disciples.  They are commissioned to continue the work of Jesus in his absence.  They are challenged to be his presence in the world.
