Readings: 1 Corinthians 15:19–26 & Luke 24:13-35

Collect: Alleluia! God of new beginnings, your resurrection brought darkness into the fullness of your light; shed that light into the dark places of our lives, that we may grasp the promise of eternity and live as your resurrection people, created, redeemed and empowered through you.  For you are alive and reign with the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen
