Walk to Emmaus

All I know is it's called the Jesus song, we alsways sang it when we were inline for communion.

 

This one?

Jesus, Jesus,
Can I tell You how I am feeling?
You have given me Your Spirit,
I love you so...

 

thats the one tp

 

We do that one at Candlelight.

 

You didn't miss a thing. When you go back, there will be a LOT of things you'll say, "hey, we did that?" about.

I remember thinking everyone at Candlelight was dressed in white. I think it was a vision.

 

Cool, huh?

 

At the risk of opening up an old thread, I wanted to share that I just recently attended Tres Dias. I can't speak for Cursillo or any of its spinoffs like Walk to Emmaus, but this was a life changer for me.

No secret rituals or calls to any other diety. Only secrets are spoilers. I encourage anyone who has been sponsored to attend to take up the offer.

Yes - there were emotional aspects. Isn't there in Church on Sunday? Is it wrong for the Holy Spirit to invoke those same emotions that God created us with? But it was hardly an "emotional experience". In fact, I'll say that my life came crashing down around me the day after I got back. Past sins came to light - sins that I've repented from and turned away from long ago. My wife hadn't gone through yet and threatened to leave me. It was the rememberance that there is no sin greater than Christ's grace that allowed me to man up and take responsibilities for my actions. My wife just returned from her journey two days ago and again our world came crashing down on us.

This happens when Satan doesn't like us turning to God for everything through Christ. There is little need for Satan to torment a timid soul, but the hearty soul threatens his grasp.

My biggest regret is that so few can attend at a time. As for being sponsored to go, the reason is because of the behind the scenes work that goes into sponsoring a person or couple to go. You really need to be sponsored by someone who knows you well.

Finally, with regards to the separation of men and women, I don't look at it as separation at all. I will always say that my wife and I attended Tres Dias "together" but two weeks apart. Different themes, different people, different everything, but the same studies. The same Spirit. The same blessing.

If ANYONE wants to know what we did on my weekend, I'll be happy to share. I'll tell anyone anything about the three days. But I'll discourage you from asking. Only because I would hate to spoil the surprise.

What North Carolina Tentmaker says is often repeated - if you enjoyed the experience, you can't wait to serve!

De Colores! (And, no, there is no further meaning in that other than it's a silly chicken song)

 

GE:

Can remember something like that myself ... long ago ... the weeping.

Christ promised us another Lord's Supper on the Earth-made-New.

No weeping then!
