Feast of the Ascension

The Irish Catholic Church celebrates the feast of the Ascension today. The Irish bishops moved it from Thursday to this Sunday.

The Ascension is one of the great feasts of Christianity. It's our belief that Christ returns to the Father. Another pointer of the importance of community.

Surely it should be the theme for words spoken at Mass today.
