The Ascension of Our Lord


St. Luke in the Acts of the Apostles tells us that forty days after Easter, Jesus commissioned his disciples to be his witnesses "to the end of the earth", and then ascended into heaven. As the Book of Common Prayer says, he "ascended far above all heavens that he might fill all things." St. Paul's will celebrate this major feast day of the Church on Thursday, May 21, with a choral Eucharist at 7:00 pm. Please join us.
