RELIGION, SPIRITUALITE

Le 29 mai, c’est le jeudi de l’Ascension !

Le jeudi de l’Ascensionest situé 40 jours après la fête de Pâques. Dans la religion chrétienne, cette célébration commémore la dernière rencontre entre Jésus ressuscité et ses disciples, juste avant son élévation divine. Ce jour symbolique est considéré par les croyants comme un rendez-vous spirituel essentiel, qui marque le dernier passage de Jésus sur Terre et son installation auprès de Dieu.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Avant de disparaitre sous leurs yeux, le Christ bénit ses apôtres et leur promit l’arrivée prochaine d’une « force venue d’en haut ». C’est pourquoi, 10 jours plus tard, lorsque l’Esprit Saint se manifesta pour la 1ère fois, nous célébrons la Pentecôte, jour de la première manifestation de Jésus depuis le ciel.
