April 23, 2023 -Christ Draws Near to Us

Part 3 of the series, "Proclaim: Declare the Works of the Lord." Two disciples were returning to Emmaus after rejecting the initial reports about the resurrection of the Lord.  As a result they did not recognize that the Risen Lord was accompanying them. Those who expect to "get nothing" out of Holy Mass will meet their expectations. But the Lord Jesus draws near to help them to raise their expectations. These disciples returned to the incipient Church in Jerusalem when they accepted the revelation if the Lord and how He revealed it. The Lord strengthens us in His Word and Sacraments. We are being nourished by Divine Life! Declare this wonderful work of the Lord.
