November Community Newsletter

^“I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

Several weeks ago, we were blessed with the opportunity to host another men’s walk, Richmond R147, at Chanco on the James. While I am certain unceasing prayer helped usher in breakthroughs to the team and pilgrims participating on the walk, I am equally certain that spiritual attacks will continue as we all navigate life’s challenges in our Fourth Day. Please continue praying that those that just participated on the walk and our entire community will remain focused, not on worldly distractions, but on Christ every day and in everything we do.

Come join the Richmond Emmaus community for gathering this Saturday, November 14!

Sandy Livingston will be facilitating Fourth Day training beginning at 4:00 pm. Note that Fourth Day training is a requirement to be able to sponsor or team on future walks so please plan to attend if you are able. After Fourth Day training, our gathering will begin with food and fellowship at 6:00 pm in the fellowship hall. Music will begin at 6:30 pm in the sanctuary, followed by worship and communion. We will also be introducing our newest community members from R-147 so please come out to welcome them to the community!

The Fall men's walk team (R-149) is currently forming. Please prayerfully consider participating on either the inside or outside team. The link to the team application can be found below. The men’s walk will be held October 14-17, 2027. We will also be holding another Face-to-Face encounter in July, 2027. Please continue to pray for team and pilgrims as preparations continue for these very important days next July. Face-to-Face team and pilgrim applications will be available online soon.

We also need pilgrims for both the Spring Women’s walk and the Fall Men’s walk so please send in those applications as soon as they can be completed. Our Walk to Emmaus weekends can host up to 20 pilgrims so please prayerfully consider sponsoring someone for this life-changing weekend. The following are links to pilgrim, sponsor and teaming applications.
