Today the Church celebrates the Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord. The assigned readings are Acts 1:1-11, Ephesians 1:17-23, and Matthew 28:16-20. The Responsorial Psalm is Psalm 47 (Psalm 47:2-3, 6-9).
Today’s Gospel reading is as follows:
The eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus
had ordered them. When they saw him, they worshiped, but they doubted.
Then Jesus approached and said to them, "All power in heaven and on
earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all
nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and
of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded
you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age."
Reflection on these readings and on this celebration:
