On the way to work, to school, to home...

The Road to Emmaus by Nikki Sheppard (Click on image for larger version)

Have you started preparing for hearing the scriptures at Mass this weekend?

Here are the scriptures and background materials to help you prepare. And if you have kids, then check here to help them get ready, too.

This week's gospel is the story of the two disciples on the road to Emmaus and their encounter with Christ in person, in scripture and at table. In just the same way, we accompany each other every day on the road from here to there, friends and strangers alike. In just the same way, Christ approaches and walks with us, wanting to engage us with his presence and word. In just the same way, the Lord wants to be with us at day's end... Do we see him? meet him? speak with him? invite him in?
