Emmaus Walk

What is "The Emmaus Walk"?
The Emmaus Walk is a 72 hour-experience with the objective of inspire renew, challenge and equip local church members for Christian action in their homes, churches and places of work.
 
The weekend begins on Thursday evening at 7:00pm and ends Sunday afternoon.  At Emmaus you will spend three busy but very enjoyable days, at a retreat center: Casa Salesiano de Retiro in Aibonito.  You will live and study in singing, prayer, worship and discussion.
 
Discussions center around fifteen talks given by laity and clergy.  These talks presents the theme of God's grace, and how that grace comes alive in the Christian community and express itself in the world.  You will have the opportunity to participate in the daily celebration of Holy Communion, and to begin to understand more fully the presence of Christ in his body of believers.  You will experience God's grace personally through the prayers and acts of service of a living support community.
 
The Emmaus movement is ecumenical and was adapted in 1978 from the Roman Catholic Cursillo by The Upper Room of the General Board of Discipleship of the United Methodist Church in Nashville, TN
