WEEKEND GOSPEL 

THE ASCENSION OF THE LORD

GOSPEL       Mk 16:15-20

A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark

The Lord Jesus was taken into heaven and is seated at the right hand of God.

Jesus showed himself to the Eleven and said to them, ‘Go out to the whole world; proclaim the Good News to all creation. He who believes and is baptised is saved; he who does not believe will be condemned. These are the signs that will be associated with believers: in my name they will cast out devils; they will have the gift of tongues; they will pick up snakes in their hands, and be unharmed should they drink deadly poison; they will lay their hands on the sick, who will recover.’

And so the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven: there at the right hand of God he took his place, while they, going out, preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word by the signs that accompanied it.

 A beginning point for discussion of this week's Gospel with children

• Who do you know who has gone away and you don’t see very often?
• How do you keep in touch?

Jesus went back to his Father but he is still with us.

• How do we keep in touch with Jesus?

We show Jesus is with us by the way we live.

• How will you show others that Jesus is with you this week?
