Help form leaders who are deeply rooted in Christ, and equipped for the journey.

Many people are longing for depth, clarity, and spiritual grounding but they are navigating life, leadership, and ministry without adequate formation or ongoing support.

Spiritual leaders in particular are often expected to guide others while carrying little space for their own care, reflection, or ongoing formation.

At Emmaus Formation Centre, we come alongside them with sustained spiritual formation, guided learning, and spiritual direction that helps them remain rooted in Christ and resilient in life and leadership.

SUPPORT THE JOURNEY

Your Support Keeps Pastors and Leaders on the Journey

Emmaus exists to create sacred spaces where people grow deeper in God, and are formed for the journey through training, spiritual direction, workshops, and retreats.

As a monthly donor, you become a companion empowering those on the journey of ongoing formation and learning.

You are not simply giving to a program—you are investing in long-term transformation in individuals, communities, and churches.

STORIES OF TRANSFORMATION

Emmaus formed me to listen deeply—to God and to others. The program grounded me spiritually, equipped me with practical skills, and surrounded me with a community of wise companions. I see the fruit of that formation every day.

BEV GIROUX

Studying at Emmaus has been transformative for me. I learned that God wants to be in relationship with each of us, today. Now I understand more fully how we learn in community and how the church community can support spiritual formation.

The School showed me the power of learning in community. I could grow at my own pace and embrace the journey without fear of not being ‘advanced enough.’ Through this formation, I’ve gained confidence, joy, and the assurance that God is with me in my ministry.

From Invitation to Transformation

At Emmaus, transformation begins with an invitation—to slow down, to listen deeply, to attend to Christ’s presence.

Your monthly “yes” makes it possible for others to accept that invitation.

The Impact of Your Giving

“Spiritual direction and spiritual formation has been a journey that I will continue for as long as I’m in ministry, and as long as I have breath because the benefits are just so astounding, and I can’t imagine carrying on in ministry without what I’ve gained from Emmaus .”

— REV. JOHN KIM, Pastor Bridgeway Church
