Join Fr. Luke Barder, OP, in this "Word of Hope" homily as he unpacks the profound mystery of Christ's Ascension. Whether you're celebrating the Ascension or reflecting on the Sixth Week of Easter, this message offers a fresh perspective on why Jesus needed to leave and what that means for us today.
Using the beautiful imagery of a blooming flower and the intricate art of origami, Fr. Luke illustrates how seemingly chaotic events in our lives and in the Church are part of God's perfect design. Discover how the Holy Spirit acts as our guide and instruction manual, helping us to understand and participate in His unfolding plan for a "new Jerusalem" filled with light, beauty, truth, happiness, and peace.
This homily encourages us to embrace the gifts of the Spirit, received in Confirmation, to contribute to God's kingdom here on Earth.
