Making Room at the Table : Emmaus : 3 Easter Sermon

Emmanuel Garibay. Emmaus, 2000. Oil on canvas.

How is our homeward walk to the familiar being interrupted by Christ?  Are we making room at our table for the stranger? As in this painting, when does Christ  emerge in the unexpected person? At table, where Christ most often shows up.

Today’s sermon from Luke’s walk to Emmaus  here in 3 Easter highlights the three tables around which Christ shows up at Saint Michael’s, South Bend.
