GOSPEL REFLECTION ON THE ASCENSION OF OUR LORD

Jesus’ ascension is a firm call to action, for at the end of St. Matthew’s Gospel, He gives us the great commission to “make disciples of all nations.” This is a call to be stewards and use our gifts to spread the Gospel within our parishes and the Church. Let us strive to do this through the strength of Christ within us who says, “Remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
