"Now on that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus...          
When He was at the table with them, He took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.         
Then their eyes were opened, and they recognized Him..."         
Luke 24:13-35         

     The story related in this scripture is the basis for a 72-hour weekend experience called
The Walk to Emmaus.     Check out this Video:  Introduction to Walk to Emmaus

     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."

History
The Walk to Emmaus is an adaptation of the Roman Catholic Cursillo (pronounced cur-SEE-o) Movement, which originated in Spain in 1949. Cursillo de Cristianidad means "little course in Christianity."

The Name "Walk to Emmaus"
The Walk to Emmaus gets its name from the story in Luke 24:13-35, which provides the central image for the three-day experience and follow-up. Luke tells the story of that first Easter afternoon when the risen Christ appeared to the two disciples who were walking together along the road from Jerusalem to Emmaus.

How to Attend
To get involved in Emmaus, each person must have a sponsor who has already attended Emmaus him- or herself. If you have a friend who has been to Emmaus, ask your friend to tell you about his or her experience with the program or talk to your Pastor.
