But stay in the city until you are\n clothed with power from on high. (ESV)\n\n Yesterday, the fortieth day after Easter, the Church\n celebrated Christ Jesus' ascension into heaven where He sits at\n the right hand of the Father. Because the Father is present\n everywhere, Jesus is also present with His Church. Although we\n cannot see Him, we know He is with us in Word and Sacrament, even\n as He has promised to hear our prayers.\n\n Therefore 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 Jesus gave His disciples a very simple commission and the\n promise of the coming of the Holy Spirit. ``You are witnesses of\n these things. And behold, I am sending the promise of my Father\n upon you. But stay in the city until you are clothed with power\n from on high.''\n\n Today, through the working of the Holy Spirit, the Church\n still is a witness of the truth of salvation by grace through\n faith for the sake of Christ. Those who hear the message of the\n Gospel respond in word and deed to God's grace and mercy.\n\n Trinity Lutheran Church is humbled that her Savior, Jesus\n Christ, has entrusted us to bring you this message of hope and\n comfort. Please join us this Sunday at 9:00 a.m. as we are\n gathered at God's invitation to receive His gifts of grace and\n mercy.\n\n May our Lord keep us steadfast in faith towards Him and in\n fervent love for one another for the sake of Christ Jesus. Amen.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"May 15, 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-4815","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\/4815","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=4815"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4815\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4816,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4815\/revisions\/4816"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4815"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4815"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4815"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
