The Ascension is celebrated on the Thursday that is the fortieth day of the Easter season. Join us on the eve of Ascension Day as we celebrate this principal feast of the church year.
“Almighty God, whose blessed Son our Savior Jesus Christ ascended far above all heavens that he might fill all things: Mercifully give us faith to perceive that, according to his promise, he abides with his Church on earth, even to the end of the ages; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen” (Book of Common Prayer, p. 226).
