About Us
The Emmaus Catholic Young Adult Group was started in 1996 by Fr. Ducci in Orange Park, FL. The group first met in the Wilcox house, moved to St. Catherine’s, and then due to the group’s growth and mission ultimately to Assumption Catholic Church. We chose the name “Emmaus” because of the passage in the book of Luke 24:13-35. We love this passage because it deals with the Lord opening the eyes of those who are blind to the truth. The two men’s minds are opened to the Truth when Jesus teaches them about Himself starting from the Old Testament to His death on the Cross to His Resurrection. Afterwards the two men recognize who Jesus is when He gives them the Eucharist i.e. His very Body and Blood in Communion. Our group’s mission is to open the hearts and minds of young adults to Jesus in order to live a holy life. We seek to proclaim the Gospel, which includes all of the Church’s Teachings. We do this by having guest speaker’s talk about the faith, Bible studies, Mass and Adoration, worship music, retreats, sports, and more. We believe in building a strong community of Catholic young adults whose goal is to change lives and live lives of holiness for Christ.
"Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?" Luke 24:32.

「大師們。」她輕聲說：「他們告訴我的。他們說我活過86次。」
「帶著對任何有關輪迴轉世的科學論文的強烈渴望，我翻遍了醫學圖書
館。讀得越多，就越意識到，儘管曾認為自己頭腦的每方面都受過良好的
教育，但我的知識還是很有限的。有許多這方面的研究和出版物，都是由
知名的臨床醫生和科學家們實施、驗證並重複的，但是很少人知道。他們
有可能都錯了或者都被欺騙了嗎？證據是如此的確鑿，而我還是懷疑。不
管確鑿與否，我覺得難以相信。」
「這經驗再加上隨後其他病人的經驗，我的價值觀開始轉變，從物質轉入
精神，而且更關心人我關係，不再汲汲於名利，我也開始理解甚麼是可以
帶走而甚麼帶不走。確實，在這之前我一定也不相信肉體死亡後我們的某
一部份還有生命。」

「那幾週，我重溫了在哥倫比亞大學念一年級時所學的比較宗教課的課
本。在《聖經》舊約和新約全書中確實提到輪迴轉世。公元325年，羅馬康
斯坦丁大帝和他的母親海倫娜，將新約中關於輪迴轉世的內容刪去了。」
在《前世今生》一書中也提到，大師們通過凱瑟琳共示現了10餘次，談話涉
及到人類的不朽及生命的真正意義：「我們的任務是學習，豐富知識成為
神那樣的生命。直到我們可以解脫了，然後我們會回來教誨和幫助其他
人。」
