What Happens at an Emmaus Walk? The “Walk to Emmaus” is a 72-hour experience. The weekend begins on Thursday evening and ends on Sunday evening. At Emmaus you will spend three busy but very enjoyable days at Camp Tekoa. You will live, study, sing, pray, and worship together. You will discover how grace is real in your life, and how you can live in the life of grace, bringing grace to others. Come join us for lunch in the Fellowship Center on August 4th beginning at 12:15pm and hear all about how you can enjoy this awesome experience.
