And the Risen Jesus sent forth His apostles to proclaim this message, as described in the final verse of today's Gospel reading. Though Jesus ascended to Heaven, He remained with them in the work of proclaiming the Gospel with "accompanying signs".
And God is still at work among us as we do our part to proclaim the Gospel even in our lives with signs that demonstrate He is alive among us and continues the work of redemption in manifesting the Paschal Mystery of Christ's Death and Resurrection.
God is alive, roaring like a lion, as in the Newsboys song.
And I was stirred in the heart to be part of the work of handing on the faith to my students for the past 10 years, and to conclude my tenth year this evening by helping my students encounter God in our time together as we learned about what faith means for us.
