Feast of the Ascension of Our Lord – 20.05.2012

The ascension or the return of Christ to heaven, in his human but glorified body, is the culmination, the sign and seal of the accomplishment of his salvific mission on Earth. He, the son of God, the second divine Person of the Blessed Trinity became man, lived and died on this earth so that we men could live with God forever in heaven.
