Emmaus Journey is a mission of lay Catholic evangelization and discipleship which partners primarily with parishes while also supporting campus groups, small groups and individuals to facilitate a personal encounter with and conversion to Christ, thereby forming missionary disciples actively living for Jesus.
VISION
VISION
"To encounter the Word (Christ) Who ignites the hearts of the faithful for a lifetime of discipleship and mission."
By encountering Christ through scripture, discipleship and community—individuals experience 1) conversion to Christ, 2) transformation in Christ, and 3) mobilization for Christ, where they are actively involved in sharing their faith with others and living out their faith in the greater community, thus achieving Goal One of the USCCB’s initiative on evangelization, “To bring about in all Catholics such an enthusiasm for their faith that, in living their faith in Jesus, they freely share it with others.”
Our Mission and Vision are inspired from Luke 24:13 - 35
"...Were not our hearts burning [with-in us] while he spoke to us on the way and opened the scriptures to us?" (verse 32 NAB)
Emmaus Journey endeavors to accomplish this goal in support of the Church by:
Helping Catholics who only occasionally practice their faith or who are nominal in their commitment, to experience conversion to Christ.
Encouraging individuals to experience transformation in Christ as they grow in understanding and commitment to Scripture and the Church’s teachings.
Mobilizing Catholics to become actively involved in sharing their faith among people who have not encountered Christ and accompanying them in their journey of discipleship.
Emmaus Journey's aim is to facilitate these three stages of missionary discipleship - conversion, transformation and mobilization - by providing high quality, faithfully Catholic, practical small-group bible study materials, evangelization and discipleship resources, seminars, and ministry events that help equip those we serve to engage in the mission of evangelization and discipleship.
Emmaus Journey has staff located in numerous cities throughout the United States. In addition Emmaus Journey ministries exist in several countries outside of the United States.
Emmaus Journey is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt public charity. Contributions to Emmaus Journey are deductible under section 170 of the IRS code.
