Ascension Day is the 40th day after Easter, when Jesus ascended into heaven. It is an important feast day in the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches. This year it is celebrated on May 14th in the Catholic Church and Anglican Church and a week later in the Eastern Orthodox tradition as Easter falls a week later for the Orthodox Church due to their use of an older calendar to determine the date of Easter.
