Ascension

Jesus Christ ascends to take his place at the right hand of the Father. From there, He sends the Holy Spirit, proceeeding from Him and His Father. He directs us to continue His mission - to proclaim to every creature, or whole creation. Everything needs to hear this message, and those humans which accept it in belief, and are baptized, will be saved. As Christ ascends, His humanity as well as divinity ascends, and He takes us with Him.

We continue the mission of Christ, to proclaim to the whole of creation, without exception, the saving good news of Jesus Christ's death, resurrection, and ascension. If St. Dominic can preach to the the fish, we should be willing to proclaim the Gospel to at least those around us.
