The Gospel for All Ages

About the Gospel:
Jesus walks with two of his disciples to Emmaus.  They do not recognize him until he blesses and breaks bread with them, just as he did at the Last Supper.  The disciples are filled with joy, and share their experience with other they meet. 

Family Prayer:
Jesus, our hearts are full of love for you.  Help us to notice your presence with us. Amen.
