Emmaus Walk

For more than 20 years now, it has been a custom for SVD youth parishes to celebrate Easter Monday by participating in walk famously known as “Emmaus Walk”. Youth and everyone willing to join together with SVD confreres walk from one SVD parish to another. The walk begins with the first rites of Mass at the first station. The first reading and the Psalms are read in another station. Then at some points there are some symbolic activities such as breaking of symbolic chains representing the chains that tie and prevent the young people from achieving their goals in life. The Gospel and the rest of the mass are held at the final station.
