FACE to FACE is an adaptation of The Walk to Emmaus. Face to Face is specifically crafted to meet the needs and life-stages of older adults. The program seeks to invite men and women, ages 60 and older, to experience Jesus through a 4- session journey, covering subjects such as discipleship, mission, grief, and end-of-life issues. The highly flexible schedule allows participants the freedom to engage in structured Bible study and prayer in a church setting or other community space. Led by clergy and lay leaders, Face to Face strengthens and renews followers of Christ and bolsters the spiritual life of individuals, families, and congregations everywhere. Face to Face is open to members of any Christian denomination who want to strengthen their spiritual lives, discover answers to their questions about faith, and are open to understanding the responsibility of living a Christian lifestyle.
Face to Face gives seniors the opportunity to rediscover Christ's presence in their lives, to gain fresh understanding of God's transforming grace, and to form friendships that foster their faith after the Face to Face experience.
An Emmaus "Walk" in the FACE to FACE adaptation is known as an "Encounter".
The Face To Face Steering Committee is very active, and has been meeting regularly since July 2019. We are in the process of touring venues to select the one for our first Encounter, tentatively scheduled for February 14, 17, 21, 24, 2023.
