(ESV)\n\n        We celebrated Jesus ascending into heaven eight days ago.\n   Saint Luke recorded:\n        Then he led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up\n        his hands he blessed them.  While he blessed them, he\n        parted from them and was carried up into heaven.  And\n        they worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great\n        joy, and were continually in the temple blessing\n        God.&#91;3]\n\n\n        Jesus Christ is present with His Church through His Word and\n   Sacraments.  We believe, teach, and confess that He is at the\n   right hand of the omnipresent Father, thus He is also with us\n   physically, though we cannot see Him.  Finally, our Lord and\n   Savior is with His Church through the holy office He bestowed\n   when He sent His disciples to spread the good news of salvation\n   by grace through faith for the sake of His suffering, death, and\n   resurrection to all the earth.\n\n        This is to fulfill the promise given through Ezekiel the\n   prophet:\n        You shall dwell in the land that I gave to your\n        fathers, and you shall be my people, and I will be your\n        God.\n\n\n        Today, the Church on earth is in God's presence.  He calls\n   us to be His people, and has promised that we will have\n   everlasting life in His holy mansions.  The land in which we will\n   dwell eternally is like the Garden into which our Creator placed\n   the first man and woman.\n\n        While on earth, we have the opportunity to join with angels,\n   archangels, and all the company of heaven as we gather to hear of\n   God's rich love and mercy, that Jesus died and rose again for\n   your redemption.  Please come to Trinity Lutheran Church on\n   Sunday morning at 9:00 a.m. to hear this marvelous news.  May our\n   Lord grant you the peace of knowing your sins are forgiven for \n   Jesus' sake.  Amen.\n____________________\n\n   3.
