TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
The mystery of the Ascension has to do with holding in tension a sense of God’s nearness, along with the
burden caused by apparent signs of absence. The risen Jesus says to Mary Magdalene, “Do not cling to me,” perhaps
pointing out to her that his physical presence to the disciples was time‑bound and temporary. It was a gift for their
transformation, and after forty days, he vanished from their sight and hearing, though never out of their conscious-
ness. They do not mourn at his going this time: there is no trace of the disciples who hid in fear at his crucifixion, no
sense of the women who wept softly as they carried ointments to the tomb through the dewy morning light. Instead, the
scriptural accounts show them full of joy, comforted by his promise to be with them forever, and open to the Spirit’s
power. They are joyful, energized, aware, and united with one another in love. They seem to grasp an awareness that if
the mission to the whole world was a serious one, then the presence of the Risen Christ could not be pinned down to
any one place or time, but had to be always and everywhere completely available. All peoples, all times, all cultures
were opened to receive him in this moment of the Ascension. The energy of this feast is drawn not from absence, but
renewed and deeper presence.
SENT FORTH
Today we celebrate Jesus’ return to heaven. If we struggle
to know how to feel about this event, we take our cue from Je-
sus’ disciples. These disciples are first-hand witnesses to the
Ascension, returning afterword to Jerusalem, where “they were
continually in the temple praising God.” Long-time companions
of the Lord, they surely feel the pain of physical separation from
Jesus. Yet they praise God continually. They accept God’s plan,
looking forward to the day when Christ will come again.
As our reading from Hebrews affirms, Christ will return to
“bring salvation to those who eagerly await him.” This Good
News is almost too much to take in; the Acts of the Apostles
explains that an angel has to wake the disciples from their stu-
por, reminding them to start the Lord’s work. Today’s readings KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
are our own angel, sending us forth in joyful hope. Round Table meets the 3rd Tuesday of each
month. If interested in
