Gospel: Luke 24:13-35 That very day, the first day of the week, two of Jesus’ disciples were going to a village seven miles from Jerusalem called Emmaus, and they were conversing about all the things that had occurred.

A Reflection for National Day of Mourning
I agreed to write a blog for the National Day of Mourning on Nov. 25, 2021, which is Thanksgiving Day, without knowing anything about the history of the special day in the United States. I was very grateful for the gift of technology and for National Today which gave me some significant facts about this day.

Asking questions: Feast Day 2012
