Hi Sky Emmaus Community Newsletter
February, 2009 - Page 3

Team lists and pilgrim lists available online

Team lists and pilgrim lists are available on the website by clicking on the Calendar link at the top of each page, then by clicking on the walk number. The Prayer Vigil for each walk or flight is also available at the top of each Walk/Flight calendar link.

Prayer Vigil

Be certain to join in the Prayer Vigil for each of the upcoming Walks and Flights. The vigil is available for signup at each Community Meeting and then at Sponsors Hour the first night of each walk or flight. You can check the prayer time slots that you have signed up for, or see what times are still available for each walk, on this website at the top of each Walk or Flight team and caterpillar listing (click on the Calendar link). Contact Carol Hopkins to sign up for your prayer times by phone at 694-2854 or 528-0642, or by email at carhoppy@aol.com. We are working toward a fresh prayer vigil to cover each event in prayer for the entire 72 hours, so please be aware of the calendar dates for each walk or flight so you can get signed up to pray for the caterpillars, pilgrims, and teams. Anyone desiring to sign up for a permanent time slot may do so; we simply ask that you please include either your email address or a contact phone number so that we can remind you of your commitment and also verify that you are still praying at that time.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

How often have you planned to go to the candlelight service or closing service and can't remember when they start? Well, those are just a couple of the “frequently asked questions” for which you will find the answers in our new FAQ section on the website. There is also information about when and where walks are held; how to sponsor; how to register; contact information for board and committee members or those handling various aspects of Emmaus; drop off locations for gift and food agape; as well as how to get involved in the community after you have been on your walk. Check it out!

Prayer for other Emmaus communities.

Each year, various other Emmaus communities provide us with their wall agape letters, as well as their walk dates and request our prayers for those walks, just as we request their prayer for our walks. We are going to start listing here each month the walks and flights that are going on in other communities. Here is a list of walks of which we have been made aware that are going on in February 2009, for which we should be in prayer:
