In the Church’s annual liturgical cycle, Pentecost is “the last and great day.” It is the celebration by the Church of the coming of the Holy Spirit as the end—the achievement and fulfillment—of the entire history of salvation. For the same reason, however, it is also…

"O God, my God, I rise early at dawn unto Thee; my soul thirsteth after Thee."

In the winter, Matins begins in the dark; but now that it is nearly June, pre-dawn light and birdsong fills the air as the sisters begin each morning's service.

Christ has ascended! St. Leo the Great reminds us that Christ's ascension is for the strengthening of our faith: that what the apostles struggled to grasp when Christ was with them bodily, they understood more fully at His ascension; that Christ never departed from the Father when He dwelt among us in the body, and He has not departed from us now that we no longer see Him with our bodily eyes. Now, the eyes of our soul grow stronger.

Let us rejoice and desire the peace that the Lord so rejoices to bestow join us, His children.
