The
Walk to Emmaus
is a spiritual renewal program intended to strengthen
the local church through
the development of Christian disciples and leaders. The
program's approach seriously considers the model of Christ's
servanthood and encourages Christ's disciples to act in
ways appropriate to being
"a servant of all."
The Walk to Emmaus experience begins with a 72-hour short
course in Christianity, comprised of fifteen talks by
lay and clergy on the themes of God's grace, disciplines
of Christian discipleship,
and what it means to be the church. The course is wrapped
in prayer and meditation, special times
of worship and daily celebration of Holy Communion.
The "Emmaus
community," made up of those who have attended an
Emmaus weekend,
support the 72-hour experience with a prayer vigil, by
preparing and serving meals, and other acts
of love and self-giving. The Emmaus Walk typically begins
Thursday evening and concludes Sunday evening. Men and
women attend separate weekends.
