Sunny Days

Getting warmer these days and taking chances to soak in sun as much as we can. Playing outdoor , football is children's favourite. Getting bikes out, going out as a family, visiting our orchards, strolls are our specials.

  Recently , there was  a trip to our local woods with some of our friends.

It was Ascension thursday, reminding of 40 days after Easter Lord Jesus ascended to heaven. Thus the Ascension is not Jesus leaving us abandoned, orphaned, but Jesus going to prepare a place for us—and to send his Spirit to be with us always. 

There are lot of beautiful ways you can celebrate.

As it is a day of obligation, you can work around your time to attend Holy Mass.

We went in our playing fields and played rocket . Sky is so vast and very calm in the afternoon. 

Then there was a mini marathon  preparation for Great Manchester Run 2023 this Saturday.

I love the scriptures on ascension- to go and preach good news till the very end of the earth....my dream and praying for it.
