The Ascension
of Our Lord into Heaven


Mark 16:19 Luke 24:50-51 Acts 1:9-11

Ascension Thursday -- Thursday of the Sixth Week of Easter*



The Apostles' Creed

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and Earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord,
Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit
And born of the Virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell.
The third day He rose again from the dead.
He ascended into Heaven and sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty.
From thence He shall come to judge both the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church,
The Communion of Saints,
The forgiveness of sins,
The resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.


* Easter Sunday is the first Sunday after the first full moon of Spring. Ascension Thursday is forty days after Easter.
