The Solemnity of the Ascension of Christ was celebrated fittingly at Ratisbonne.  The students of the first year received the Ministry of Lector and the students of the second year received the Ministry of Acolyte.  On this day that culminates Christ's paschal mystery, the Mass celebrant Fr. Maurizio Spreafico urged the students respectively to have a deep reverence for the Holy Scriptures and the Blessed Sacrament.  Each of the ministries focuses respectively on these two mysteries of faith.  Following this Mass the community celebrated with a festive lunch with entertainment from the third and fourth year students.
