Merry Christmas!

 

The Christmas holidays are usually the time many of us reflect about the events of the past twelve months, reviewing the good, the bad, and everything in between. The world around us has had its challenges and the Hoosier Hills Community and Board is no different in that regard.

 

While we lament that the Fall Walks were cancelled, we press on toward the Spring 2026 Walks. The teams for each walk promise to be strong and effective in service of the incoming pilgrims. We encourage you to review the Sponsorship training  (link is found on this website’s Sponsorship page) and to prayerfully consider who it is that God is leading you to sponsor. Sponsorship is the first act of agape toward a pilgrim and the Community as a whole.

 

We also encourage you to donate to the Emmaus Walks, should you be unable to participate as a volunteer or sponsor. Remember your Walk and how it enriched your relationships with God, your congregation, and others. What a wonderful gift to assist someone in attending a Walk!

 

Of course, prayer is also the most important act of agape we can offer for the Walk, the teams, and the pilgrims. Keep them in prayer daily.

 

It has been a privilege to serve as your Community Lay Director this year. I look forward to serving alongside all of you in the future.

 

For we are what he has made us, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand to be our way of life.   ~Ephesians 2.10 (NRSV)

 

 

DeColores!
