Our Scripture reading for this Sunday is Acts 1:1-11.
Yesterday (Thursday) was Ascension Day. Traditionally, perhaps, we would have had a service last night to celebrate that, however, we will celebrate on Sunday. In preparation for that I invite you to read the passage from Acts 1.
Also, I invite you to read this article by Kevin Miller, the Executive Vice President of Christianity Today.
