Readings: Acts 1:1-11 / Psalm 47 or Psalm 93 / Ephesians 1:15-23 / Luke 24:44-53
Introduction: In today’s readings the risen Christ ascends into heaven and his followers are assured that the Spirit will empower them to be witnesses throughout the earth. The disciples are told to not gaze up into heaven to look for Jesus (Acts 1:11); we find his presence among us as we proclaim the word and share the Easter feast. We too long for the Spirit to enliven our faith and invigorate our mission.
Sermon: Pastor Kathryn Gulbranson
