Emmaus House

 

Welcome to Emmaus House (and the new website design)

hug   Emmaus House is a home for women, especially women coming from jail, prison, or rehab. Our purpose is to provide the women with a family-like, Christian atmosphere while they are creating new lives for themselves. We see a woman's stay at Emmaus as temporary, lasting until they are able to be on their own.
   At Emmaus we believe that each person has the potential to become what God wants them to be, regardless of what they have done.

Emmaus House Has Some Unique Features

1. We try to ensure that each home has a live-in staff or senior "guest" who also claims Emmaus as home, giving Emmaus a real home-like atmosphere.
2. We have no specific end time for a woman's stay, but each one can stay until ready to be on her own.
3. To date we have 12 homes. Some are beginning homes and some are homes for those who are no longer beginners.

4. We receive no financial help from any governmental body. Our staff are "missionaries" working without real salaries.

Our homes are located in Saginaw, Michigan

The name "Emmaus" is from the Bible,
Luke 24:13-34.

   In the Bible,
it designates
the story of Jesus
on the "road to Emmaus", a city.
Our hope is that
our women while here, will meet
Jesus on their journey toward
a better life.
