Hey guys,
This Thursday we will be playing volleyball in the gym at Assumption from 7:30-9pm. They will be having basketball practice all the way up to 7:30 and we have to be out of there by 9, so let's try to get started right at 7:30 to maximize the fun! We are going to be starting the rosary at 6:45pm so we'll have a few minutes to stretch before we play. If the weather is nice, I thought we could pray outside by the statue of Mary in front of the gym, otherwise we will be right inside the entrance vestibule. This is also a great opportunity to introduce someone new to Emmaus in a relaxed, social atmosphere; so invite a friend to join us! Hope to see you there (with your "A" game, of course)! ;)

Emmaus This Thursday
Come on out this Thursday at Assumption for a wonderful evening with guest speaker, Deacon John Bretz! Deacon John will begin our group discussion this week by leading an in-depth exploration of Thursday's readings and how they pertain to The Feast of Our Lady of Sorrows and the Exaltation of The Cross. Deacon John has requested that we each try and read Thursday's readings ahead of time and spend some time reflecting on them.
We will meet at Assumption at 7 pm for the Rosary to be followed directly by our discussion with Deacon John! We hope all of you will come out and join us for prayer and spiritual growth. We are very excited to see each and every one of you! Bring a friend!
God Bless!

This Thurs.: Mary the Eucharistic Woman, Pt. II
Hello brothers and sisters in Christ,
This week at Emmaus we will once again have Gerald Lamb coming to speak about our Blessed Mother and her connection to the Eucharist based on scripture and reflection on the mysteries of the rosary, particularly the last three joyful mysteries. As you may remember from last time, Gerald is a graduate of Franciscan University at Steubenville and holds a Master's degree in Theology. He has a good depth of knowledge in this area, so bring your questions! We will be meeting in Kohl's Hall. Come join us at 7pm for Rosary if you can. God Bless!
In JMJ,
The Emmaus Core Team
