Transcript of Www.cafod.org.uk The walk to Emmaus Luke 24:13-35.
Two of them were going to a village called
Emmaus... seven miles from Jerusalem, talking
with each other about all that had happened.
.
Cleopas answered, “Are you the only stranger
in Jerusalem who does not know the things
that have taken place there in these days?”
.
“...about Jesus of Nazareth...
Our chief priests and leaders handed him over
to be condemned to death and crucified him...
.
Some women of our group astounded us...
and told us that they had seen
a vision of angels who said that he was alive.”
.
“How foolish you are, and how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have declared!”
...Then beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them the things about himself in all the scriptures.
“Stay with us, because it is almost evening
and the day is now nearly over.”
So he went in to stay with them.
.
They returned to Jerusalem and found the eleven and their companions...
They were saying, “The Lord has risen indeed, and he has appeared to Simon!”
Then they told what had happened on the road,
and how he had been made known to them
in the breaking of the bread.
Let us pray together: Risen Jesus,
there are many among us who go hungry.
Help us to recognise you in our global family.
As we break bread together,
may we share together in your Kingdom
of welcome and plenty for all. Amen.
