The Ascension of Our Lord God

and Savior Jesus Christ

During the 40 days after His

Resurrection, Christ appeared to his

disciples confirming them in faith. He

then ascended into Heaven and is seated

at the right hand of the Father (Luke 24;

50-52, Mark 6; 19). The apostles' joy

lies in the fact that in his Ascension

Christ does not abandon the world. "And

remember, I am always with you to the

end of the age." (Matthew 28; 20) Christ

invisibly abides in the world, in which

humanity is called to attain salvation. The apostles receive

from Christ the blessing and commission to preach the

Gospel to all creation and to make disciples of all the

nations, baptizing and teaching them to observe all that

Christ commanded them (Matthew 16; 15, 28; 9-20).

In his Ascension, Christ renewed human nature its

divine glory. The liturgical stichera/verses of the Ascension

feast sings of the open 'doors to heaven' and how Christ

'enters into heaven', where he is greeted by angelic powers

in fear and trepidation. He is lifted up 'upon the clouds',

above the cherubim and 'higher' than heaven. As God, to

him belongs 'a place' at the right of the Father. In God's

plan the Ascension is the condition for the descent of the

Holy Spirit;"It is to your advantage that I go away, for if

I do not go away, the Advocate/Holy Spirit will not come

to you"(John 16; 7). Christ ascends to the Father "for us

men and our salvation". (Symbol of Faith) "In my Father's

house there are many dwelling places. If it were not so,

would I have told you that I go prepare a place for you?

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again

and take you to myself, so that where I am, there you may

be also." (Jon 14; 2-3) Just as Christ ascended into glory so

in glory he will return again. (Christ our Pascha-Catechism

of the Ukrainian Catholic Church. #296-297)

Special Thanks

We would like to thank all those who came to the May

Crowning ceremony after the 4:00pm liturgy on Saturday,

May 13. This also marked the 100th year anniversary of

our Lady of Fatima.

Thank you to Ava Sudomir for being our May Queen.

Thank you to the I.C. Church Children's Choir for their

sweet voices. Thank you to our Altar Boys, Communicants

and everyone who participated in the procession.

It was wonderful seeing so many people honoring our

Holy Mother.

Thank you for your support from the OLPH Sodality.

Вознесіння Господнє

П р а з н и к Г о с п о д н ь о г о

Вознесення завжди припадає у

четвер на сороковий день після

Христового Воскресення. Це один з

великих Господських празників і

має дев'ятиденне попразденство.

Він звеличує подію Христового

Вознесення на небо та підкреслює

її значення для Христа і для нас.

Святий Йоан Золотоустий у

своїй проповіді на Вознесення

каже: "Сьогодні людський рід

совершенно примирений з Богом. Зникла

давня боротьба й ворожнеча. Ми, що були недостойні

жити й на землі, вознесені на небо. Сьогодні стаємо

наслідниками небесного царства, ми, що не вартуємо й

земного, виходимо на небо й унасліджуємо престол

Царя і Господа. А людська природа, перед якою

херувим боронив рай, піднесена тепер понад усякого

херувима".У пам'ятках трьох перших сторіч

нічого не сказано про цей празник. Не згадує про

нього й письменник Ориген († к. 251), який

перераховує християнські празники у восьмій книзі

свого твору Проти Цельсія. Знавці обряду вважають,

що в перших трьох віках цей празник святкували

разом з празником Зіслання Святого Духа. Сильвія

Аквітанська не називає цей празник Вознесенням,

а тільки "сороковим днем після Пасхи". У IV столітті

п р а з н и к Г о с п о д н ь о г о В о з н е с е н н я с т а є

загальновизнаним. Історик Сократ († к. 440) називає

його "всенародним празником" (Історія Церкви, 7, 26).

Празник Вознесення звеличили своїми проповідями

святий Йоан Золотоустий, святий Григорій Ниський,

святий Епіфаній Кипрський, Лев Великий й инші. У IV

столітті цариця Єлена поставила храм в честь цього

празника на місці Христового Вознесення. Дух

богослужень цього празника в загальному

бадьорий і радісний. Свята Церква радіє славою Христа

-Богочоловіка, що засів по правиці Отця. Він вознісся

на небо, щоб зіслати нам Утішителя — Святого Духа

та щоб, як Він сам каже: "приготовити нам

місце" (Йо. 14, 2). "Господь вознісся на небо, —

співаємо в першій стихирі на великій вечірні

Вознесення, — щоб зіслати Утішителя світові. Небо

приготувало престол його, а хмари — вознесення Його.

Ангели дивуються, бачачи чоловіка понад собою. Отець

чекає на Того, що Його від віків держить у своєму лоні.

А Святий Дух каже всім ангелам Його: "Візьміть, князі,

ворота ваші; всі народи плескайте руками, бо вийшов

Христос там, де був перед тим". о. Юліян Катрій, ЧСВВ.

The Meaning of Holy Communion

The presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist is different

from any other. Christ is some way mysteriously present in

everyone (Mt 25; 40). He is present another way when two

or three are gathered together in His Name (Mt 18; 20). In

still another way, He is present in the Church as it preaches,

governs, and sanctifies (Mt 28: 20). Christ prays with us

and in us during the Divine Liturgy, it is Christ who offers

and is offered, who receives and is given as food to the

faithful. In all such instances we encounter Christ in His

action and power. Only in the Eucharist do we receive the

Body and Blood of the Risen glorified Christ who ascended

into Heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father, as

both Catholics and Orthodox believe.

In the Holy Eucharist Christ is truly present under the

forms of bread and wine. Like the Holy Trinity, the Holy

Eucharist is a tremendous mystery of faith. We accept it

because the Last Supper Jesus said; “This is my Body, This

is my Blood”, meaning Jesus Himself changes bread and

wine into His Body and Blood, and commanded His

Apostles to;”Do this in memory of me.” In the Living

Bread discourse in John 6; 32 ff, Jesus boldly refers to

Himself as “the living bread that came down from heaven.

Anyone who eats this bread shall live forever: and the bread

that I shall give is my flesh for the life of the world…I tell

you most solemnly if you do not eat the flesh of the Son of

man and drink his blood, you will not have life in you…For

my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. He who

eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me and I in

him.” The people understood Christ’s words literally and

were horrified. Many of His disciples left him but Jesus did

not retract, nor did he call them back to say they

misunderstood him: No, he knew that they interpreted his

words literally and rightly.

The Holy Eucharist is Jesus’ greatest gift to us, His

living presence in our souls to change us into Him.

“Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me

and I in him.” (Jn 6; 56) “By partaking of the Body and

Blood of Christ, we become one body and blood with

Christ, we become Christ-bearers. In his way according to

blessed Peter, we “share in the divine nature.” (St. Cyril of

Jerusalem) “Nor do you change me into yourself as you do

food for your flesh, but you shall be changed into me…

” (St. Augustine) “It is the completion of the sacraments,

not simply one of them. Here all human striving reaches its

goal. For in this sacrament we attain God Himself, and God

Himself is made one with us in the most perfect of unions…

This is the final mystery. Beyond this, it is impossible to

go, nor can anything be added to it.” (14th Orthodox

Byzantine theologian Nicholas Cabasilas: “On the Divine

Liturgy.”)
