Catholic Disciples Devoted Through the Word

Emmaus Journey exists to encounter the Word—Jesus Christ—Who ignites the hearts of the faithful for a lifetime of discipleship.

We inspire, accompany, and equip Catholic lay disciples who labor for the Kingdom in their families, parishes, and communities. All in communion with the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church.

We believe that Sacred Scripture is the foundation of discipleship. Accompaniment—walking with others in faith—is our charism. Spiritual Multiplication—disciples making disciples—is our vision.

EJ Companions have made up their mind: They're not going to let a day go by without getting into the Word of God.

"For the next nine months I did all the right things, but inwardly I was filled with dismay and anger. How could eight years of faithful and devoted ministry be dismissed in such an abrupt and caustic manner?

It is in times like this that prayer and Scripture matters."
