EMMAUS ROAD: WHO ARE WE? WHY DO WE EXIST?
Emmaus Road: our Name and Story
The Lord who walks alongside us reveals himself and we discover him.
Church Beyond Sunday: our Motto
We experience the fullness of God in both Gathering and Going.
In the worship gathering of fellowship, Word, sacrament, and song.
Going beyond the worship gathering, led by the Spirit,
we walk alongside others, listening and telling our stories.
