Get Involved ...

  Emmaus House has a lot of opportunities for YOU to Get Involved. Our little community has flourished and grown tremedously over the last 27 years, only through your prayers, contributions, donations, and especially through those who graciously give us the precious gift of time and talent everyday as volunteers.
  Emmaus House cares for over 40 women at any given time. Considering the maintainence and upkeep of our now 14 homes, a small fleet vehicles, the Free Thrift Store, as well as day to day operating costs... as you can imagine our needs can be great. We are funded entirely by donations from people like you. Although our needs are very large God continues to bless us abundantly!

Below are just some of the ways YOU can Get Involved.

There is always a need for volunteers here at Emmaus House. Even one or two hours of your time is a signifigant help to us. We can always use help here at the main office answering phones, taking messages, transporting our women, wrapping gifts, or just taking a little time to help us with other office tasks, as well as a whole laundry list of things that come up everyday that we could use your help with... You might also consider volunteering at the Free Thrift Store or with our Homes of Hope project shown below that also need volunteer work done.

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

In the Bible, it designates the story of Jesus who walks with two of His disciples returning home from Jerusalem 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.
