The Ohio Valley Emmaus and Chrysalis Communities are glad you've stopped by!
Here's
where you'll find information about Walks, Flights, Gatherings and Hoots.
Not sure what those
things are? Feel free to choose from the menu on the left and browse around the site.
Something you need to know . . . Emmaus and Chrysalis is NOT a church.
These
international
organizations were created to strengthen the local church by creating strong
Christian leaders
who are devoted to sharing the Love of Jesus Christ and assisting the clergy
to build the
Kingdom of God.
So, go ahead, look around this site, find out more about us, come and see us
at a gathering,
visit us
on Facebook and/or drop us an
e-mail. We look forward to hearing from
you! |

EMMAUS COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Ohio Valley Emmaus offers

learning more about what we do at Emmaus. Our Outreach Committee is
available to conduct full or partial church services, and we are also
willing to come to church board meetings to talk about Emmaus. For more

EPWORTH CENTER STOVE
FUNDRAISER PROJECT
The Ohio Valley Emmaus Community board has unanimously voted to engage
in an outreach project to fund the purchase of a new commercial gas
stove for the kitchen at the Epworth center. The total cost of this project is $4,700.00 and
we are well on our way to meeting this goal.
It is important to
realize that our community is not the only ones to utilize the Epworth
Center; countless mission groups are housed and fed there year round.
In the past few years our relationship with the Epworth Center has grown
to a point that they have been able to bless us financially with the
overall cost of each walk. We must in turn reach out and demonstrate to
all what happens when the Body of Christ does in fact function as Christ
Jesus would have us to do.
We ask that you prayerfully consider helping with this project.
Please mail your tax-deductible contributions to our treasurer,
Walt Withers
46306 Noble Ridge Road
Caldwell, Ohio 43724
Checks may be made payable to Ohio Valley Emmaus, and please mark that
it is for the Epworth Stove Project.
For more information on this project, please contact Frank Rogers, Board
Chair, at 740-765-5185. THANK YOU, and GOD BLESS! |
