Road to Emmaus
Event description
“On that day…” the disciples had to get away from the suffering, fear and hopelessness. They took to the road…the Road to Emmaus. Sometimes we need a Road to Emmaus where we can turn to the God of the resurrection for answers. It is on the road where Jesus walks with us in our suffering, fear and hopelessness, helping us to make sense of the things around us. Join Joan for an deeper look at accessing that "road" to God and how the walk to answers might be different from what we expect.
