On the Walk to Emmaus
ROANOKE, VirginiaThe Roanoke church has sent 15 of its members on the walk to Emmaus (December WN).
Bob White was the first to participate. After his experience many more wanted to go. The joy, the agape love and the enthusiasm were so apparent in him.
Pastor Everett Craft was sponsored next. He, too, was moved and inspired by the Emmaus experience.
"We walked with Jesus for 72 hours," said Mel Scott. "The love, the prayers, the bonding with others, the giving of time by so many to make the weekend a success was totally awesome," said Mary Sue Craft
The Emmaus experience is for everyone who longs for a deeper relationship and a closer walk with our Savior.
After the 72-hour walk, participants become part of the Emmaus Community. All are encouraged to join a reunion group to strengthen, comfort and encourage. Sherry Kinzie.
