The Solemnity of the Ascension

My Companions pray with me: Lord, may we honor You as we appreciate the Ascension. Forgive us for failing to notice Your love and Your power among us. Thank You for all Your gifts. And please provide for all our needs, especially the needs of our companions who request our prayers. Amen

Companion Events: Bithdays: Carmen Albiniak (5/12), Matthew Peterson (5/15), Pat Backes (5/15)  Anniversary: Katie and Jim Frodl (5/11/2007).

Keeping In-touch: Marge has had a cough that's debilitating her and we've had a week of rain and snow: Spingtime in the Rockies! I have not played tennis in over a week...getting grumpy. But we have a promise of sunny days ahead.

Decision Point: Decision Point...the True Presence

The Readings: The Solemnity of the Ascension 

Some Commentary: Fr. John Foley, S. J. 

My comments and an invitation for your comments:  
God is not confined to a time or a place. Sometimes our literal imaginations fail to serve us. We may imagine Jesus shooting into the heavens like a booster staged rocket... not to be seen or experienced. How do you imagine the Ascension of Jesus? And how does your image impact the way you live, your memories, and your expectations?
