Lay Director's Greetings

As of this date, all the teams for the Spring Walks have begun their training and God is doing a mighty work in these servants. We need to continue to lift these teams up in prayer as well as the pilgrims that are preparing for these Walks. As a community, we also need to support our Walks through our presence at Candlelight and Closing, by sending Agape and food, and by volunteering for the behind the scenes service. Let's remember what Ephesians 6:18 tells us, "Pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints." I look forward to serving with you this year!

Decolores,

Emmaus Volunteers

Are you interested in helping with a walk? Well, the "wonders of technology" are here to help you. You can access the online volunteer signup here. Fill this out and submit. This will be sent to the Emmaus Registrar and entered into the Community Registration System to be included in reports that are used to staff various Walk to Emmaus work parties.

Message from the Treasurer

As treasurer, I would like the community to know that our Scholarship Fund is healthy and available for pilgrims who need help with their registration costs. Just write "Scholarship Requested" on the application form in lieu of a check for pre-registration. 

We also have a Matching Gifts Fund created by several generous donors with unmatched seed money of over $1500 as of August 2007. To add to this fund, specify "To Matching Gifts" with your donation. Until depleted, unspecified donations (excluding fees and regular collections) are doubled by Matching Gifts.

In Christ,
Gene Ladd
