This weekend: StorySide:B is performing from 7:30pm-10pm Friday evening at the Cathedral Festival (at the Mission Grounds in St. Augustine). The band has actually gone their separate ways after the passing of their bass player, Ron, back in January. But let me tell you, lead singer, Lu and his new fellow musician sound great, playing the songs of StorySide:B. Come out and support a fellow Catholic young adult musician :) Admission to the festival is $5.
And for all you Latin dancing lovers!!!!!! !!Saturday evening hosts Latin Impact, beginning at 7:30pm, and ending with the fireworks at 9pm. This band is awesome!!!! You'll get at workout dancing....or you can sit and relax with friends enjoying the music of this very talented group.
I will probably go down to St. Aug on Sat for the Salsa dancing so if you want to carpool e-mail me at john6bb@yahoo.com or send an e-mail to the Emmaus yahoo group to see if you can carpool with someone emmauscya@yahoogroups.com .

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.
