+ The Glorious Feast of Ascension:

Next Thursday 25th May is the Glorious Feast of the Ascension of our Lord Jesus Christ to the Heaven after forty days of His Holy Resurrection. No human being could ascend to Heaven except the God of Heaven. Anyone who ascended before needed some kind of help. Enoch was not found for the Lord has taken him. Elijah needed the Chariot of fire to carry him. They only ascended up to disappear into the depths of the highest. But Christ ascended to the Highest Heaven and became Higher than Heaven (Heb 7:26). His Ascension has proved and witnessed for His Deity and Equality to the Father:

1) Angels submit to Him: Who has gone into Heaven and is at the right hand of God, angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him.

2) And He put all things under His Feet and gave Him to be head over all thing to the Church Eph 1:22

3) That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow of those in heaven and of those on earth and of those under the earth Phi 2:10 Of course worship is due to God alone.

4) And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the Glory of God the Father Phi 2:11

5) And gave Him to be head over all things to the church Eph 1:22 The church is His Body ( Eph 1:23) and the Church is the Church of God then He is The Lord to Whom the Church belongs. Holy Mass 9 - 11am at St Mary’s Church.
