Summary: <p>The Gospel of Matthew depicts the scene of Jesus’ ascension into Heaven. Before Jesus ascends he gathers the 11 remaining loyal apostles and gives them his final instructions. He gives them their mission and their focus. When the Church stays focused on these words, it succeeds but when it forgets them, it goes wrong. The same is true of our lives when we have a few words that clearly define our purpose and our mission.</p> <p>In this week, we will encourage members of the parish to find words or verses from Scripture that are their key verse for their lives that give direction to their lives.</p>
