Rich has also served as speaker and seminar leader at numerous Christian conferences and conventions including the National Council of Catholic Evangelization, St. Paul’s Instutute of Catholic Evangelization, the Franciscan University of Steubenville’s Men’s Conferences, the Journey of a Lifetime Conference, the Catherine of Siena Institute, Greater Portland (ME) Council of Catholic Men, and the National Fellowship of Catholic Men conferences, for whom he also serves as a trustee.Gail has greatly contributed to the ministry of Emmaus Journey from the very beginning by contributing ideas, editing manuscripts of the bible studies and resources, serving administratively and reaching out to women locally. This is and has been a ministry we do together.
Current Update
Emmaus Journey staff and leaders have received several invitations to bring their ministry focus and expertise to Catholic in several other countries. Please pray for wisdom as we endeavor to ascertain how to respond to these invitations.
A Practical Resource We Recommend
Hiding God’s Word In Your Heart and Mind: The Catholic Topical Memory System is probably the best one-on-one or small group resource for establishing people in their faith and bringing about a substantial understanding of what it means to be a Catholic Christian. The following quote illustrates its effectiveness, “Can I ever thank you enough?!!! … the Lord has been showing up so powerfully and really speaking to my heart through the quotes and your thoughts written in The Catholic TMS - are there ever some gems in there!” It requires work but you will be glad to see the results.
