Invest in a Life-Changing Journey: 

Sponsor a Pilgrim for the Walk to Emmaus 

Dear Friends,

Sponsors are invited to prayerfully consider supporting a pilgrim on their upcoming Walk to Emmaus weekend. This three-day experience provides a chance to deepen faith, grow in the relationship with Jesus Christ, and discern how God calls individuals to serve in their homes, churches, and communities.

Sponsorship is more than just financial support. It is an act of agape, expressing love and support for the pilgrim throughout their journey. As a sponsor, you are:

• Praying for your pilgrim before, during, and after the weekend.

• Providing practical assistance, such as arranging transportation and ensuring their family is cared for during their absence.

• Encouraging and supporting their "Fourth Day" journey, helping them connect with the Emmaus community and become active disciples of Christ.

• Embody the community's commitment to each pilgrim by demonstrating love and support through your presence at Send-off, Candlelight, and Closing.

By sponsoring a pilgrim, spiritual growth is invested in, and the vital work of building up the body of Christ is contributed to. Individuals are helped to become more enthusiastic disciples, bringing new life and vision to their churches and the world around them.

Consider the impact this experience can have on someone's life and the ripple effect it can create in their community. Sponsorship can help make this transformative weekend possible.

To sponsor a pilgrim or learn more about the sponsorship responsibilities, please [Include specific instructions on sponsoring, e.g., visit your community's website, contact the Pilgrim Registrar, etc.]. This is a partnership and a sacred responsibility.  Information regarding application, fees and contact information CLICK here 

De Colores!

​Walk Applications: Please take a look at the applications under the FILES header at the top of the screen and mail them to the Walk Registrar, Cheryl Bohannan, 21375 Hinton Lane, Saint Robert, MO 65584. If you are a team member, please give the applications to the team leader. 

Sponsors: Just so you know, you must provide both the Pilgrim and Sponsor applications. Both are needed when sponsoring a Pilgrim!

NOTE: The fees have been increased. The current sponsor fee is $145 with early registration or $155 if after early bird registration has expired, and the current Pilgrim deposit/fee is $45 (early bird) or $55 (regular). A deposit or full payment is due when submitting applications to hold registration.

We must have pilgrim applications three weeks before an upcoming walk to ensure enough time to hold the walk and prevent it from cancellation. 

​If you have any questions, contact the Emmaus Board Chair at the email link or the Emmaus Training Chair for annual sponsorship training if you have not already taken it.

Thank you for sponsoring your pilgrim and for making a difference.
