Did you know? (Sunday, June 1, 2025)

Jesus instructed the disciples that they will be witnesses to his life, death, and resurrection “to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.” The first disciples were faithful to these instructions. They brought the good news of salvation to the ends of the earth. We are evidence of their success. Now it is our turn. We cannot stand looking up to heaven, both astonished and frightened by Jesus’ absence from our sight. We have work to do. If Jesus’ message is to be brought into the world, it is now up to us to do it. He has been exalted by God, and we must now be his witnesses “to the ends of the earth.”
