When Our Eyes Were Opened
Pastor Earl will preach on the beloved story of the Walk to Emmaus in Luke 24 and reflect on the meaning of the sacraments–how they open our eyes not only within the church, but also to the many sacramental moments we have encountered, and will continue to encounter, along the journey of life.
It’s interesting that walking through the scriptures made their hearts burn but it was participation in a meal that opened their eyes to see the Risen One in their midst. I can’t help but think that’s the same invitation to us too. May you SEE your daily participation as a holy sacrament.

The stranger who is the Savior still meets us on the lonely road to Emmaus. The guest who becomes our host still nourishes us with Presence, Word, and Bread. So keep walking. Keep telling the story. Keep honoring the stranger. Keep attending to your burning heart. Christ is risen. He is no less risen on the road to Emmaus than he is anywhere else. So look for him. Listen for him.
