The Twelfth Station of the Resurrection: The Risen Lord Ascends into Heaven

Pray along with Ashley Wall, a catechist for both Ignite Middle School and Tuesday afternoon weekly classes. 

All: We adore You, O Christ
and we praise You!
Because by the Wood of the Cross and
the Light of the Resurrection,
You have redeemed the world!
 
Reading:  "So then the Lord Jesus, after He spoke to them, was taken up into heaven and took His seat at the right hand of God.  But they went forth and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the word through accompanying signs" (Mark 16: 19-20).

Reflection

Prayer:  Eternal God, clothe us now with Your power. With the eyes of our hearts enlightened, may we come to understand the immeasurable greatness of Your power at work in us who believe. In that strength, may we boldly pronounce the Good News of our salvation to everyone. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

All:  Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.
Our humble thanks to God let's show
And fitting praise on Him bestow
For Paschal blessings here below. Alleluia
