Gone Where?

Note:  All-School Mass, lingering with soon departing seniors and a 10 minute boot up including updates prevented the posting of today's slice of Bread for the Ascension.  It will appear with Friday's slice.

We might feel a tinge of sadness as we celebrate the physical departure of Jesus, his ascension to his Father's right hand, but this is not a day of sadness over permanent separation.  Where has Jesus gone?  To the Father, yes, but into our tabernacles, into our hearts as well.  He remains present and through his Spirit works through our tongues, hands and feet.  After three years of "training", he sent the Apostles to continue his work; he sends us to carry it out in our day and is by our side to help us do it.  No need for tears, rather all the reason to rejoice.  We have been chosen to follow in his footsteps and bring his Good News to others.  Alleluia!
