I Introduction
Our Purpose
The purpose of Emmaus is to renew the church as the body of the risen Christ in the world through the renewal of Christians as faithful and committed disciples of Jesus Christ.
—The Upper Room Handbook on Emmaus
The purpose of Chrysalis is to support the church’s efforts to guide the spiritual formation of Christian young people.
—The Upper Room Handbook on Chrysalis
Emmaus and Chrysalis expand participants’ spiritual lives, deepen their discipleship, and rekindle their gifts as Christian leaders in their churches and communities. These aims are accomplished not only during the three-day weekend but also through participation in Group Reunions and community Gatherings, sponsorship, prayer, support of weekends, and service on teams.
Persons whose spiritual lives are renewed and strengthened through Emmaus and Chrysalis are called to share within their communities the grace they receive. They become leavening influences in their local churches.
The purpose of Emmaus and Chrysalis is not fully realized during the three days of the event itself, but in the Fourth Day and Next Steps.
Our Vision
Fourth-Day Leaders Embodying Christ
Our Mission
Empowering Leaders through Emmaus and Chrysalis to Be the Hands and Feet of Christ.
—Vision and Mission (adopted April 2010)
