Third Sunday of Easter
The disciples on the road to Emmaus hear the Scriptures interpreted in a way that had never occurred to them before. It causes their hearts to burn within them; it is what they have been waiting to hear all their lives. It moves them to beg Jesus, “]Stay with us.” Our hearts burn as we hear Peter interpret Psalm 16 (15) with the same striking authority. The words that speak of Christ’s Resurrection—“You will show me the path of life, the fullness of joy in your presence”—have totally revivified Peter himself. The Eucharist is the enduring proof that we have been “ransomed from the futile ways…with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot”.

INTENTIONS
Lord Jesus,
you conquered death without weapons or violence:
you shattered its power with the strength of peace.
Grant us your peace,
as you did to the women filled with doubt on Easter morning,
as you did to the disciples who were hiding in fear.
Send forth your Spirit,
the breath that gives life and reconciles,
that turns adversaries and enemies into brothers and sisters.
Inspire in us to trust in Mary, your mother,
who stood at the foot of your cross with a broken heart,
firm in the faith that you would rise again.
May the madness of war cease
and the Earth be cared for and cultivated by those who still
know how to bring forth, protect and love life.
Hear us, Lord of life!
