June-July-August Bulletin
As Orthodox Christians, we ‘get’ to celebrate the Feast of the Ascension forty days after Pascha and it is the last time we see Jesus in His body on earth. It was the time He physically left His apostles and mother behind with instructions. Jesus’ instructions were to wait for the Gift of the Father. That gift was the power of the Holy Spirit who would ignite this flame within their hearts to proclaim the message of Jesus’ Gospel, become an example of love and unfold the plan for salvation to the whole world!
