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.
