Easter Monday

Easter MondayEaster Monday is celebrated in memory of the first day after the resurrection of Christ. The Bible tells us that, having risen, Christ appeared unrecognized to his two sad disciples, sharing with them the way to the village of Emmaus, near Jerusalem, and the supper.
... Taking bread, he blessed, broke it and gave it to them. Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him. But He became invisible to them. And they said to one another, Did not our heart burn in us when He spoke to us on the road, and when He explained the Scripture to us?

And they rose at the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found together the eleven apostles and those who were with them, who said that the Lord had truly risen and appeared to Simon. And they spoke of what had happened on the way, and how he had been known by them in the breaking of bread. As they spoke of these things, Jesus Himself stood among them and said to them, Peace be unto you.
