Walk to Emmaus

DISCOVER EMMAUS

The Walk to Emmaus is a 72-hour experience that takes a New Testament look at Christianity as a lifestyle. It is a spiritual walk, not a physical walk, designed to strengthen and renew your faith and the local church. The Woodlands UMC is part of the Houston North Emmaus Community. The retreat is held at Kaiserhoff Retreat Center not too far from The Woodlands.

For three days you’ll live and study together with others on the Walk, singing, praying, worshipping and discussing how to grow in faith. You’ll discover grace is real in your life, learn how you can experience grace by bringing it to others and feel God’s grace personally through prayers and acts of service.

EVERYONE IS WELCOME

The Walk to Emmaus is for Christian disciples who wish to strengthen their spiritual lives. While you may understand that being a Christian involves responsibility, you may have unanswered questions about prayer, study and sharing your faith. No matter where you are in your relationship with Christ, the Walk to Emmaus is a safe retreat where you will find a community of friends seeking a deeper understanding of their faith.
