The
Walk to Emmaus is an opportunity to meet Jesus Christ in
a new way as He is revealed to you through other believers.
It is an experience that begins with prayerful discernment
and an invitation from a sponsor. After one accepts this
invitation, an application is completed. The Walk to Emmaus
leaders prayerfully consider each applicant and in God's
time, the person is invited to attend a three-day experience
of New Testament Christianity. Following the three days,
participants are given an opportunity to join in small groups
to support each other in their ongoing walk with Christ.
Through the formational process of accountable discipleship
in small groups and participation in the Walk to Emmaus community,
servant-leadership skills are developed for use in the local
church and its missions.
The
Purpose of Walk to Emmaus
The purpose
of Walk to Emmaus is to develop leaders for the church. Walk
to Emmaus will inspire, challenge, and equip participants
for Christian action in their homes, churches, and places
of work. Walk to Emmaus lifts up a way for our grace-filled
lives to be lived and shared with others.
