Young Adult Women's Chrysalis

Dear Emmaus Communities,

Our next Chrysalis is scheduled for December 27-30, 2007 at the Waka Retreat Center. This Chrysalis is for High School Girls who are in the 12th grade and are 17 to 18 years old and Young Adult Women 19-24 years old. The cost to attend the Chrysalis is $125.00.

We need the Emmaus Communities help in getting this Chrysalis filled.
We have had to cancel two Chrysalises this year due to not having many caterpillars (pilgrams) sign-up to attend. At this time we have 1 young lady signed-up to attend this Chrysalis.

If you have someone who is planning on attending, please get those sponsor's applications sent in. If you need an application, please call me at 806-467-8375 (home) or 806-533-1280 (work). You may also e-mail me at flywithchrist@amaonline.com.

Sincerely,

Prayer Vigil

The Golden Spread Emmaus Community received the following. If you are interested in participating, the direct link to their vigil is: South Sydney/Illawarra Women's Walk #47.

G'day & De Colores,

At South Sydney / Illawarra Community we are having our Women's Walk #47 from 8-11 November 2007. If you do not already have a prayer partner for your Walk on the same week end could we share our prayer vigils? We are just south of Sydney, Australia, which is 10 hours ahead of GMT. We would carry you through your nights, say from midnight to 6am where it is still day light for us, if you would then carry us through our nights. It is not another vigil. The people who sign to pray for your Walk at a certain time also pray for us during the same time slot, then we ask our people to do the same for you.

Sorry that I am obviously late putting out this request, however if you would like to share prayer in this way could you please let me know ASAP. Our Walk #47 is registered on the www.3dayol.org prayer vigil web site.

Shalom,

John Lake
