The Road to Emmaus story beautifully mirrors the Holy Mass, reminding us that Christ walks beside us even when we fail to recognize Him. Just as He opened the Scriptures to the disciples and their hearts burned within them, so too are our hearts stirred during the Liturgy of the Word. And as He revealed Himself in the breaking of the bread, we encounter His real presence in the Eucharist. The journey to Emmaus is not just a past event—it is the rhythm of every Mass, where the risen Christ meets us.
