We pray through the Ascension of the Lord and let Saint Augustine stretch our faith beyond a simple goodbye scene. We ask for hearts set above, deeper union with Christ the head and his body on earth, and the courage to live faith, hope, and love in daily life. 
• opening prayers and praise rooted in the Church’s tradition 
• Daily Offering through the Immaculate Heart of Mary for prayers, works, joys, and sufferings 
• Saint Augustine on the Ascension as a call for our hearts to rise with Christ 
• seeking what is above through faith, hope, and love rather than escapism 
• Christ exalted in heaven yet suffering on earth in the members of his body 
• head and body unity explaining how we ascend in Christ by grace 
• Acts account of the Ascension and the call to wait for the Father’s promise 
• thanksgiving prayer that names the Ascension as our exaltation and hope
