Ascension Sunday – Sunday, 20th May 2012
...Fr. Johnny Doherty, C.Ss.R.
Jesus said to his disciples: “Go out to the whole world; proclaim the Good News to all creation”. Because of all that has been happening in the Church in recent years we can feel despondent about the future. Today’s feast of joy and gladness is a call to us to look up with confidence and know the power of Christ for the world in which we live. In spite of the sinfulness of his people, Christ is at work and can overcome. Our task is to let the world know his love and his salvation, not just by word but especially by the way we live with joy and hope and love. Although these qualities are best developed in our homes and families, they need to be seen and experienced in our faith community. This can only happen when we are all taking our responsibility for the health and well-being of our faith community and its future.
