General Information

The Walk to Emmaus is grounded theologically and institutionally in The Upper Room ministry unit of the General Board of Discipleship of The United Methodist Church.

However, The Walk to Emmaus is ecumenical.  The program invites and involves the participation of  Christians of many denominations.  Emmaus is ecumenical not only because members of may denominations participate, but because Emmaus seeks to foster Christian unity and to reinforce the whole Christian community.  This is one of the great strengths and joys of the Emmaus movement.

The fact that Emmaus is ecumenical does not mean it is theologically indifferent.  On the contrary.  The Walk to Emmaus is designed to communicate with confidence and depth the essentials of the Christian life, while accentuating those features that Christians have traditionally held in common.
