Today, as we celebrate ๐๐ฌ๐๐๐ง๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐ฒ, we witness the glorious moment when Our Lord Jesus Christ ascended into heaven, taking His place at the right hand of the Father. While this marks the end of His visible, earthly presence, it signals the beautiful beginning of our shared mission. Jesus did not leave us abandoned; instead, He entrusted His work to our hands, commissioning us to go out and be His witnesses to the ends of the earth. For us in the ๐๐ข๐ง๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฒ ๐จ๐ ๐๐ฅ๐ญ๐๐ซ ๐๐๐ซ๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ฌ, the Ascension is a powerful reminder that every time we step up to serve at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, we are participating in a beautiful reflection of the heavenly liturgy. Our service is a sacred duty that helps point the hearts of the faithful upward toward our true, eternal home.
๐๐ซ๐๐ฒ๐๐ซ:
Lord Jesus, as You ascend into heaven, we thank You for the promise of Your enduring presence and the hope of eternal life. Grant us the grace to faithfully carry out the mission You have entrusted to us, serving Your holy altar with pure hearts, humility, and dedication. Bless our spiritual family and all the Altar Servers of the Archdiocese of Capiz, strengthening us to be true instruments of Your peace and love in our homes and communities. Guide our steps on earth, keep us steadfast in faith, and lead us safely to the kingdom You have prepared for us. Amen.
