The Ascension



This weekend we celebrate the Feast of the Ascension. The artwork is from the beautiful St. John's Bible and illustrates a section from the Great Commission where Jesus commands his disciples to go "to the ends of the earth" and preach the Gospel.


The link is to the Palestrina setting of the words, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the heavens?"
