Ascension of Jesus

Today is the Ascension of Jesus.
The day that Jesus was taken up into heaven in his resurrected body, in the presence of his disciples.
40 days after Easter.

Its not a public holiday in Australia and it definitely isn't in Malaysia.
But in Indonesia, IT IS A PUBLIC HOLIDAY!
A country that consists of approximately 86% Muslims and 10% Christians.
I'm impressed!
