Happy Feast of the Ascension!

Hello everyone! Happy feast of the Ascension! It's a great day in the christian calendar. We are now in the midst of the oldest novena of the Catholic Church. During the nine days between the ascension and Pentecost the first disciples of Jesus prayed for the Holy Spirit to come. Today there are probably thousands of different novenas for all kinds of different things. For example at our church each Wednesday we have a continuous novena to St. Peregrine, the patron saint of cancer patients.

Anyway today is Day 3 of the novena to the holy spirit and if you're like me you always forget about these things and have to either play catch up or just jump in. Either way, if you want to join me I'm going to do this one: http://www.ewtn.com/devotionals/pentecost/seven.htm
