Good Sponsorship: The Cornerstone of Emmaus

Good sponsorship is vital to Emmaus's integrity, yet many take it for granted. Sponsorship is the most important job in Emmaus—it's more than just "signing up people."

Why Sponsorship Matters

  1. First Act of Agape - A pilgrim's Walk experience begins with how we handle sponsorship

  2. Sacrificial Love - Good sponsors:

    • Use discernment in recruiting

    • Embody the community's commitment to each pilgrim

    • Provide personal acts of agape through:

      • Weekend preparations

      • Presence at Send-off, Candlelight and Closing

      • Follow-up after the weekend

      • Continuous prayer

  3. Foundation for Renewal - Sponsorship directly impacts:

    • The health of the Emmaus Movement

    • Development of Christian leaders

    • Renewal of the church in ministry
