(ESV)\n\n        Today the Church celebrates Jesus' ascension to the Father.\n   Please join us this evening at 7:00 p.m. at Trinity Lutheran\n   Church as we gather with the members of Saint Paul, Fulda, to\n   rejoice that our Lord Jesus the Christ is sitting at the right\n   hand of the Father, and will return to judge the living and the\n   dead.\n\n        Before Jesus ascended into heaven, He led His disciples to\n   the Mount of Olives outside of Jerusalem.\n        Then he said to them, ``These are my words that I spoke\n        to you while I was still with you, that everything\n        written about me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets\n        and the Psalms must be fulfilled.''  Then he opened\n        their minds to understand the Scriptures, and said to\n        them, ``Thus it is written, that the Christ should\n        suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, and\n        that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be\n        proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from\n        Jerusalem.''\n\n\n        Therefore today the Church prays:\n        Almighty God, as Your only-begotten Son, our Lord Jesus\n        Christ, ascended into the heavens, so may we also\n        ascend in heart and mind and continually dwell there\n        with Him, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy\n        Spirit, one God, now and forever.\n\n\n        The message of the Church, the reason the Church exists, is\n   to bring you this good news of salvation by grace through faith\n   for the sake of Christ.  From that fortieth day after He rose\n   from the dead until now, the Church has proclaimed the truth of\n   the Word of God concerning your redemption from sin and death.\n\n        May our Lord grant us faith to hear His Word, and to trust\n   in Christ Jesus alone.  Amen.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>May 14, 2026 Broadcast<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4813","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-turn-your-radio-on-2026"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4813","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4813"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4813\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4814,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4813\/revisions\/4814"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4813"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4813"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4813"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
