The Emmaus Weekend 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”.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from your Northwest Ohio Emmaus board of directors! During 2025, the board will be discussing possible changes that we may need to make for our Community. To help us with this, we sent out a survey asking for your input. To date, 91 people have responded. Thank you for this overwhelming response. The survey results were very informative and will be extremely helpful moving forward.
We are pleased to announce that the board, along with both Lay Directors for the upcoming walks, voted to NOT postpone the upcoming walks for lack of pilgrims. The Sept/Oct walks were postponed because we had less than 5 pilgrims signed up for each. We are trusting that our Community will actively pray about sponsoring someone, sign up to pray, volunteer to help, and attend candlelight.
The women’s walk is scheduled for January 30 – February 2. The men’s walk is scheduled for February 27 – March 2. Our next gathering is scheduled for January 11th at Epworth UMC. The potluck dinner will start at 6:00pm and worship will start at 7:00pm. We really hope to see you there.
De Colores,
Your Northwest Emmaus Board
