E-MINDER: the Church of the Incarnation

← PREVIOUS EMINDER | NEXT EMINDER →

THE WEEK OF APRIL 27 - MAY 4, 2008

 

Salvador Dali, Ascension, 1958.

 

The church celebrates the Feast of the Ascension forty days after Easter (this year, May 1, though Incarnation will recognize the feast at our Friday midday service).

 

Grant, we pray, Almighty God, that as we believe your only-begotten Son our Lord Jesus Christ to have ascended into heaven, so we may also in heart and mind there ascend, and with him continually dwell; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
