In today’s readings we see that once we are with risen Christ our faith cannot remain private but must be shared in community living.
In the first reading from the Acts of the Apostles, we meet Peter and John together in the temple (wherever two or three are in my name I am there, Jesus said) not as individuals but as co-workers with Jesus. Together they look at the crippled man in front of them and through the power of the Spirit and in the name of ris`en Christ call him to health and wholeness.
In today’s Gospel, we read about a walk to the village of Emmaus with Christ, who instructs his companions and then breaks bread with them. They don’t know him until they break and share the bread as companions on the journey. All of us who are baptized participate in the Eucharist to encounter, to know and recognize Christ in ourselves and one another.
