Introduction
In today’s gospel the risen Christ appears to the disciples and offers them the gift of peace. Even amid doubts and questions, we experience the resurrection in our Sunday gathering around word and meal, and in our everyday lives. Throughout the coming Sundays of Easter the first two readings will be from the Acts of the Apostles and the first letter of Peter. Even as the early Christians proclaimed the resurrection, we rejoice in the new birth and living hope we receive in baptism.

Readings and Psalm
Acts 2:14a, 22-32
Christ’s resurrection: the fulfillment of God’s promise to David
Psalm 16
In your presence there is fullness of joy. (Ps. 16:11)
1 Peter 1:3-9
New birth to a living hope through the resurrection
John 20:19-31
Beholding the wounds of the risen Christ

Scripture readings for this week:

Today’s gospel begins with two disciples walking to Emmaus, overcome with sadness, loss, and disappointment. They had hoped Jesus, who was crucified, would be the one to redeem Israel! Yet the risen Christ walks with them and then opens their eyes in the breaking of the bread. Each Sunday our hearts burn within us as the scriptures are proclaimed and Christ appears to us as bread is broken and wine is poured. The story of Emmaus becomes the pattern of our worship each Lord’s day.

Readings and Psalm
Acts 2:14a, 36-41
Receiving God’s promise through baptism
Psalm 116:1-4, 12-19
I will call on the name of the Lord. (Ps. 116:13)
1 Peter 1:17-23
Born anew through the living word of God
Luke 24:13-35
Eating with the risen Christ

“I have seen the Lord!” Spoken by Mary Magdalene is a present statement for us too! “Because Easter isn’t over. The Resurrection isn’t past tense. God is still creating joy out of fear, still forgiving, still bringing what is dead back to life and maybe he’s doing that- through YOU. “. ❤️‍🩹. What a beautiful word!
