Yesterday, the 40th day of Easter, was the feast of the Ascension of Jesus to heaven, often celebrated at Church this Sunday. It seems like a strange feast where we celebrate Jesus apparently leaving us.
By now, most Catholics are aware of how the Star Wars greeting for May the 4th has been connected to the standard blessing of the priest and our response. Stars Wars certainly has spiritual themes and celebrating it May 4 reminds of how important it is to celebrate things we have in common.
