News & Concerns......

 To the past and present Albemarle Emmaus community,

The fall walks have been scheduled.  All October walks will be at Camp Cale.  The Men's  Walk will be held October 5-8.  The Women's Walk will be held October 19-22.  Wes Liverman and Diane VanStaalduinen are the lay directors. We are still in need of sponsored pilgrims and teamers.  Please send applications to:

PO Box 1700

Kitty Hawk, NC  27949

There have been discussions on the board about the viability of this Emmaus Community.  The general feeling is that if we can not complete walks this fall, the community may need to shut down.  The board has stepped out prayerfully and made the deposits for the walks.  They have been switched to Camp Cale to be more fiscally responsible.  Please prayerfully consider sponsoring and teaming.

Sincerely,

Albemarle Emmaus Board

I bring you greetings as your Community Lay Director.

I also bring greetings and thanks from the Board of Directors. Thank you for your prayers as we work to rebuild this spirit filled community. Please continue to pray daily for us as we move onward in planning the fall weekends.

I ask each of you to search your heart to find Pilgrims for these walks. Without more pilgrim applications these next weekends will not be able to take place and our beloved Emmaus Of the Albemarle will be forced out of existence. We were forced to cancel the spring walks and the men’s walk before that due to the lack of Pilgrims.

The Board of Directors was led to move the weekends to Camp Cale in Hertford. We have toured the Camp twice and held the community picnic there last month. This is a great venue for our weekends and comes with less cost then the 4-H center.

The Fall weekends will happen with your help and a few more Pilgrims that wish to experience God moving in their life as He moved in your life on your weekend. I ask you to reflect on your weekend and ask yourself who in your circle of brothers and sisters in Christ would enjoy the blessing of Emmaus.

We had a small but spirit filled gathering at Kitty Hawk Methodist Church this month and an awesome picnic last month at Camp Cale. Stay tuned for the gathering location for June. I would love to double the attendance from our last gathering.

Please join me in prayers for God to move in this Emmaus community. Pray that He will bring forth sponsors to allow these next weekends to happen. I pray that you will be blessed until we meet again.

In God’s Love and Grace.
