Ascension Day is Thursday, May 13th
"Wherefore gird up your loins and serve God in fear and truth, forsaking the vain and empty talking and the error of the many, for that ye have believed on Him that raised our Lord Jesus Christ from the dead and gave unto him glory and a throne on His right hand; unto whom all things were made subject that are in Heaven and that are on the Earth; to whom every creature that hath breath doeth service; who cometh as judge of quick and dead; whose blood God will require of them that are disobedient unto Him.”
-- Polycarp (80-167 AD), excerpt from
Letter to the Phillipians (130 AD?)
