Grief on the Road to Emmaus is a 2023 book written by American bereavement educator Beth L. Hewett and published by Liturgical Press. The book serves both everyday individuals seeking to assist the bereaved and professional facilitators in grief support. It emphasizes faith-based environments, mainly Roman Catholic but also ecumenical. The work draws from eight principles found in the Rule of Saint Benedict: love, mutuality, hospitality, listening, prayer, humility, action, and community. These principles function as tools to guide those helping grieving people. Hewett connects these ideas with the biblical account of Jesus's grieving followers on the road to Emmaus, using this story as a framework for walking alongside mourners.
