Were not our hearts burning within us while he was talking to us on the road, while he was opening the scriptures to us?

And at the heart of an Agapito is a meal among friends. Members of each familial (or local) community gather monthly for prayer together, formation based on God’s Word and time for sharing news or plans, before ‘breaking bread’ together. The Agapito is hosted by a coordinator, someone who has journeyed with the Lord and with community for a number of years, and who is commissioned to pastorally care for members locally. 

The Agapito creates the environment for friendship to grow. Sometimes at bigger gatherings people can feel ‘one of the crowd’. In these smaller gatherings, everyone is seen, and there is time and space to care, support and pray for one another.
