Today is the day the Western Church calendar commemorates our Lord's ascension to the right Hand of the Father. 60 days after Easter, 10 Days before Pentecost.
Here is the traditional collect or prayer for Ascension Day:
Grant, we beseech thee, Almighty God, that like as we do
believe thy only-begotten Son our Lord Jesus Christ to have
ascended into the heavens, so we may also in heart and mind
thither ascend, and with him continually dwell; who liveth
and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost, one God, world
without end. Amen.
