In the spirit of glory that marks Resurrection Sunday, we celebrate Christ's Ascension into Heaven.
We marvel at the working of God's power to raise Him from the dead, and then raise Him to Heaven.
Like with all other aspects of the Paschal Mystery, the Ascension is not something we watch Christ experience from the sidelines. He promises that we will tread the same path to enter the glory of the Father.
And we experience His glory now, because He, endowed with great power by virtue of His Resurrection, has given us a share in His mission to disciple the people of the world into this way of Life in which we live. He empowers us through the promised Holy Spirit, Who guides us each step of the way.
