Emmaus Walk E-Bulletin (Easter Sunday)

~ EMMAUS WALK ~

Hello Walkers! This week we celebrated Easter Sunday! We rejoice for our Lord has conquered the grave and has risen! 

#Spiritual Food 
  • This week's "FEEDING ON THE WORD OF GOD" topic is The Walk to Emmaus! Do look out for the email or read it on our facebook page
  • Have a read of this great article entitled, "Resurrection pours 'fresh hope' on the world, Pope reflects" - http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/resurrection-pours-fresh-hope-on-the-world-pope-reflects/ 
  • Here's a teaser: "Pope Francis also noted how the Gospel account shows three examples “of a life-changing encounter with the Risen Lord” which all invite us to the same experience. Like Thomas, we need to grasp the reality of Christ's rising to new life, like Mary Magdalene, we need to hear Jesus' voice calling our name, an like the travelers on the road to Emmaus, we need to find renewed joy and hope by recognizing that the Lord is ever at our side.”

#Cool things happening in the Catholic Church
  • Two of our Holy Fathers will soon be getting canonized! This is first time in history that two popes are getting canonized together! 
  • We thank the Lord for the gift of Pope John and Pope John Paul - for them being true witnesses of the gospel, as well as being salt and light to the earth in their lifetime.
