Walking With The Father: Ascension

June 2, 2019

Ascension


  • Father Matthew discusses two points in this homily. Firstly, Jesus shows us where we belong by coming down to us, and showing us how to live. We now celebrate Jesus' ascension into heaven. Jesus is the head and the leader of the Church, and we, as members of his body, follow the head. We learn that death is not the end, but the beginning of a greater life that is to come. Secondly, Jesus asks us to continue his work of making disciples. He tells us to "feed my sheep".
