We are in a new normal – getting used to being church in some different and creative ways. Today’s gospel invites us to think about how we recognise the risen Jesus in the ordinary acts of gathering for meals and living in our bubbles. 

Hearing the story of the disciples meeting Jesus on the road to Emmaus has a number of invitations

-           What are your hopes in all this?

-           How are you feeling?

-           Is this something you can share with others

-           Or just in prayer?

-  what stories and passages from scripture come to mind as you think about your experience over the last 5 or so weeks, and as you look ahead.

-  how risen Christ is being made known without our homes in our ordinary act of breaking bread?
