"Psalm 151" for Ascension and VII Easter C (May 5 and 8, 2016)

I'm presenting two planners in this post: one for Ascension, and one for VII Easter (Year C).  Of course, many dioceses celebrate Ascension on the Sunday after the actual Ascension. Those places can disregard the VII Easter list, as that's when Ascension falls for them.  Here in the Northeast, we're lucky enough to benefit from both Ascension Thursday (a Holy Day of Obligation) AND VII Easter.
