The Upper Room-Walk to Emmaus
Connect
Picture
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- or 8-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.

The Face To Face Steering Committee is very active, and has been meeting regularly since July 27.
 
We have selected the Edges facility, a.k.a. Blacksburg UMC Christian Life Center (formerly the Catholic Church), Blacksburg VA, as the venue for our first Encounter, June 16, 19, 23, 26.
 
There is much work to be done between now and June.  If you feel God calling you to help with this new outreach ministry, contact any member of the Steering Committee.
