Ascension of The Lord and Communication Day 2020

In addition to the Feast of the Ascension of the Lord, we also acknowledge World Communications Day and the World Day of Prayer for the Church in China.

The Ascension of the Lord commemorates the fortieth day after Easter Sunday. It celebrates the completion of God’s work of human salvation (which started with Good Friday), Christ’s entry into heaven, and the promise that we will share in eternal life with God.

Benedict XVI speaks about this feast: The meaning of Christ’s Ascension expresses our belief that in Christ the humanity we all share has entered into the inner life of God in a new and unheard of way. It means that we have found an everlasting place in God. We believe that we will share in God’s heavenly gifts after our death.

Praise the Lord
