A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke.

Then the traveling disciples recounted what had happened on the road and how they had come to know Jesus in the breaking of the bread. While they were still talking about this, Jesus actually stood in their midst and said to them “Peace be with you.” In their panic and fright, they thought they were seeing a ghost. Jesus said to them, “Why are you disturbed? Touch me and see—a ghost doesn’t have flesh and bones, as I do.” They were still incredulous for sheer joy and wonder, so Jesus said to them “Do you have anything here to eat?” After being given a piece of cooked fish, the savior ate in their presence.

The Good News as spoken through Luke.
