Gospel: Luke 24:46-53 As he blessed them, he was taken up to heaven.
At the end of today’s Gospel, we hear that the apostles left the site of Jesus’ ascension with great joy. How could they be so happy at his
departure? They knew that he would be with them from then on in everything they did. As we hear God’s holy word proclaimed today,
let us listen for clues to how we too can be people of joy, continually praising God.

Ascensión de Nuestro Señor Jesucristo a los Cielos
VII Domingo o domingo de la Ascension
Entrada
Hoy estamos celebrando la solemnidad de la Ascensión
del Señor. En las lecturas de hoy veremos que Cristo es
la cabeza de la Iglesia. Él afirmó su autoridad y envió a
sus seguidores a hacer discípulos y misioneros suyos en
el mundo entero, para que nuestros pueblos en Él tengan
vida. Pidamos al Espíritu de Cristo que nos de fe y fortaleza
para ayudar a edificar la Iglesia.
Primera lectura: Hechos 1, 1-11
En esta lectura, tomada del libro de los Hechos de los
Apóstoles, Lucas nos dice que Jesús ha convivido 40
días con sus discípulos, y los ha instruido con una nueva
luz sobre el sentido del Reino de Dios. El momento de la
Ascensión del Señor al cielo es la última acción personal
de Jesús en el mundo. Él nos promete el Espíritu Santo.
Salmo Responsorial: Salmo 46, 2-3. 6-7. 8-9
Dios asciende entre aclamaciones, el Señor, al son de
trompetas.
Segunda lectura: Ef. 1, 17-23
San Pablo, escribiéndoles a los efesios, indica que Cristo
es dueño y Señor y estará sobre todas las cosas. Nosotros
tenemos el Espíritu de Sabiduría para que comprendamos
toda la profundidad de la esperanza cristiana y el poder
de Jesús, para que en su nombre actuemos.
Evangelio: Lc 24, 46-53
Cristo nos invita a continuar su misión en todo el mundo.
Por el poder del Espíritu Santo somos también sus testigos.
Cristo sube al cielo para que los Apóstoles inicien la obra
de predicación.
Pistas para la Oración
Dios Padre nuestro, hoy se llena de júbilo nuestro corazón
por la glorificación de Cristo Jesús. Él es el hombre nuevo;
y en su exaltación gloriosa es dignificada la naturaleza
humana.
Por todo ello alabanza a ti, y gozo y esperanza para tus
hijos: Donde está Él, que es nuestra cabeza, esperamos
llegar nosotros.
Ilumina los ojos de nuestro corazón para que comprendamos cuál es la esperanza a la que nos llama en Cristo
resucitado y cuál la riqueza de la gloria que tú das a tus
elegidos.
Mientras tanto, queremos cumplir la tarea que Él confió:
anunciar a todos la buena nueva de tu amor de tu salvación.
Danos la luz y la fuerza de tu Espíritu para esta misión.
Amén.
Tomado de B. Caballero: La Palabra cada
domingo, San Pablo, España, 1995, p. 489)

Ascensión de Nuestro Señor Jesucristo a los Cielos
VII Domingo o domingo de la Ascension
Entrada
Hoy estamos celebrando la solemnidad de la Ascensión
del Señor. En las lecturas de hoy veremos que Cristo es
la cabeza de la Iglesia. Él afirmó su autoridad y envió a
sus seguidores a hacer discípulos y misioneros suyos en
el mundo entero, para que nuestros pueblos en Él tengan
vida. Pidamos al Espíritu de Cristo que nos de fe y fortaleza
para ayudar a edificar la Iglesia.
Primera lectura: Hechos 1, 1-11
En esta lectura, tomada del libro de los Hechos de los
Apóstoles, Lucas nos dice que Jesús ha convivido 40
días con sus discípulos, y los ha instruido con una nueva
luz sobre el sentido del Reino de Dios. El momento de la
Ascensión del Señor al cielo es la última acción personal
de Jesús en el mundo. Él nos promete el Espíritu Santo.
Salmo Responsorial: Salmo 46, 2-3. 6-7. 8-9
Dios asciende entre aclamaciones, el Señor, al son de
trompetas.
Segunda lectura: Ef. 1, 17-23
San Pablo, escribiéndoles a los efesios, indica que Cristo
es dueño y Señor y estará sobre todas las cosas. Nosotros
tenemos el Espíritu de Sabiduría para que comprendamos
toda la profundidad de la esperanza cristiana y el poder
de Jesús, para que en su nombre actuemos.
Evangelio: Lc 24, 46-53
Cristo nos invita a continuar su misión en todo el mundo.
Por el poder del Espíritu Santo somos también sus testigos.
Cristo sube al cielo para que los Apóstoles inicien la obra
de predicación.
Pistas para la Oración
Dios Padre nuestro, hoy se llena de júbilo nuestro corazón
por la glorificación de Cristo Jesús. Él es el hombre nuevo;
y en su exaltación gloriosa es dignificada la naturaleza
humana.
Por todo ello alabanza a ti, y gozo y esperanza para tus
hijos: Donde está Él, que es nuestra cabeza, esperamos
llegar nosotros.
Ilumina los ojos de nuestro corazón para que comprendamos cuál es la esperanza a la que nos llama en Cristo
resucitado y cuál la riqueza de la gloria que tú das a tus
elegidos.
Mientras tanto, queremos cumplir la tarea que Él confió:
anunciar a todos la buena nueva de tu amor de tu salvación.
Danos la luz y la fuerza de tu Espíritu para esta misión.
Amén.

domingo, San Pablo, España, 1995, p. 489)

Second Reading: Ephesians 1:17-23 Christ is the head of the church; where he is we are called to follow.
or Hebrews 9:24-28; 10:19-23 Christ will appear a second time to bring salvation.
Gospel: Luke 24:46-53 As he blessed them, he was taken up to heaven.
At the end of today’s Gospel, we hear that the apostles left the site of Jesus’ ascension with great joy. How could they be so happy at his
departure? They knew that he would be with them from then on in everything they did. As we hear God’s holy word proclaimed today,
let us listen for clues to how we too can be people of joy, continually praising God.
