We all have our experience of Christ, one way or another. It may be a big experience, or maybe small. In most cases, we have encountered Christ through prayer groups, one of which is the Emmaus Prayer Group.
The Emmaus group provides this environment where we can encounter Christ.
The Emmaus is not just a church ministry, prayer group, organization, but a Christian community.
first of all I have to thank many of you who were involved in the Great Adventure Bible Seminar. I was truly amazed by your love for the Word of God, your generosity by giving your time and energy. I am still amazed by people like Basil, Ben, Vincent, William, and Anne, and many others who spend a lot of time and effort for the seminar. Thanks for many people who are helping the Emmaus for the exhibition. I think we work great as a team aren't we? and we really enjoyed it :)
The title is the first mission of The Emmaus. We can try to break down this statement and see what we can do to achieve this mission statement. I will refer to articles made by Archbishop Fulton Sheen in many parts of this reflection.
To be disciples of Christ
There do we get the word "disciples" from the story of Emmaus? It is mentioned in the beginning of the story.
And behold, two of them went, the same day, to a town which was sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, named Emmaus.
Christ is looking for men and women\
who will help him to affirm his victory
using his own weapons: the weapons of justice and truth,
mercy, forgiveness and love. His Holiness, Benedict XVI
