He ascended. And then he said: go. ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

This Sunday we celebrate the Ascension of the Lord at Saint Francis Parish and Outreach. The disciples stood staring at the sky where Jesus had been. Two figures in white interrupted them with a gentle but urgent question: why are you still looking up?
The commission is still the same. All nations. All the way to the ends of the earth. With the promise: I am with you always.
Come and be part of a community that is learning to stop staring and go.

Do you live in the #aikensc area? Are you somewhere in the #CSRA? Would you like to help as a #journalist for a new citizen led news site? Contact us today at editor at aikenvoices.com for more information!

I'm thinking about possibly running a #polyglot #coding #conference in my local area.

I've got thoughts and some resources I intend to tap into, but wanted figured I'd tap into the #wisdom of the #fediverse while I'm at it. ๐Ÿ™‚

I'm primarily interested in building up the #local #developer community.

If you happen to live in the #augusta #georgia / #csra and have thoughts, I'd love to hear them as well.
