On the Road to Emmaus

Depending on when you begin the first unit of Dwell, you may be using this unit in the same month as Easter. Since Unit 4 contains the story of Jesus’s death and resurrection, we didn’t include a separate Easter session in this unit, but you can find a variety of suggestions for celebrating Easter with your group in this post.

Scripture
Focus
After his resurrection, Jesus surprised two followers on the road to Emmaus.
Faith Nurture Goals
  • Imagine how the two friends felt before and after they recognized Jesus.
  • Sense the mystery and wonder of Jesus' resurrection.
  • Worship Jesus as our risen Savior.

Leader Reflection

Steps

Step 1 Breathe

Use this time to focus your attention on God.

Do this with me: calm your head, heart, and hands as you slowly breathe in . . . and out. (Demonstrate a few deep "in and out breaths" with eyes closed.)
