Affirmation of Membership and Organization

Last Sunday Emmaus was affirmed by our parent organization as a Church of the Nazarene.

What does this mean?
- Emmaus has been officially recognized by The Church of the Nazarene as our own non-profit organization.
- Resources, such as the “HUB” and the Virginiatown property, previously owned by our network will be transferred to Emmaus.
- Accountability to our network leadership remains, but greater responsibility is placed on our own church community’s leadership team. Before the lead pastor selected the leadership team; beginning in 2010, this team will be elected by the church community.

If you have any questions about this, or the organizational structure of our community, please don’t hesitate to ask! It’s an honor to serve as your pastor. – Nathan
