Ascension Sunday - When Jesus disappears or does He?

Have you ever felt Jesus has disappeared?  Perhaps you are going through a difficult patch and nothing is working out.  Perhaps you have a feeling of unsettledness.   This week we are celebrating Ascension Day on Sunday (it actually took place on Thursday), in Germany the day is called Himmelfahrt (meaning goes to heaven), the day when Jesus left this earth to sit at the right had of His father.   We will explore why the disciples were joyful when this happened, and why Jesus needed to leave earth.
