Second Mystery: The Ascension
“When he had said these things, as they were looking, he was taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight.”Acts 1:9
Forty days after His Resurrection, Jesus promises the Holy Spirit to His apostles and ascends into heaven, where He is seated at the right hand of the Father.
Fruit of the mystery: Hope
Come, Holy Spirit
Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love.
V. Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created.
R. And you shall renew the face of the earth.
