The Fourth Sunday of Easter - Jubilate Sunday

We join Jesus in the Upper Room as He prepares His disciples for His coming departure. Jesus tells them that He will leave in a little while, but that His return also will be in a little while. As those who anxiously await His return, Jesus comforts us tenderly with words that the wait will not be much longer. We are sustained with this thought that soon our waiting will be over, and the time of rejoicing with Our Lord will commence.
