My Folder for the Solemnity of the Ascension

This post was lost in Blogger.  So I'm re-posting it.

Forty days after Christ's Resurrection, Our Lord ascended into Heaven.

This year, the Solemnity of the Ascension is June 2, celebrated on the following Sunday.

I found many beautiful free downloadable coloring pages on the internet. The ones I chose are HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE and HERE.

The Bible passage I chose:
(the bolded part below is what I put into the folder)

In the first book, Theophilus, I dealt with all that Jesus did and taught until the day he was taken up, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen. He presented himself alive to them by many proofs after he had suffered, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God. While meeting with them, he enjoined them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for "the promise of the Father about which you have heard me speak; for John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit." When they had gathered together they asked him, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" He answered them, "It is not for you to know the times or seasons that the Father has established by His own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, throughout Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." When He had said this, as they were looking on, He was lifted up, and a cloud took Him from their sight. While they were looking intently at the sky as He was going, suddenly two men dressed in white garments stood beside them. They said, "Men of Galilee, why are you standing there looking at the sky? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven will return in the same way as you have seen him going into heaven." Acts 1:1-11

Liturgical Folder for Easter -- The Resurrection

I'm posting my liturgical folders for Palm Sunday, Holy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter, in separate posts today.



Note: some coloring pages you may have to copy and then paste into a WORD document, and then enlarge in the word document.


Resurrection -- Easter Sunday

Titles inside the folder:

Christ is Risen
Allelujah!
The Empty Tomb

Text inside the folder:

John 20: 1-9  On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb. So she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them, “They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don’t know where they put him.”  So Peter and the other disciple went out and came to the tomb. They both ran, but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and arrived at the tomb first; he bent down and saw the burial cloths there, but did not go in.  When Simon Peter arrived after him, he went into the tomb and saw the burial cloths there, and the cloth that had covered his head, not with the burial cloths but rolled up in a separate place.  Then the other disciple also went in, the one who had arrived at the tomb first, and he saw and believed.  For they did not yet understand the Scripture that he had to rise from the dead.
