LEXINGTON COMMUNITY - Lexington Emmaus Community
E MMAUS LEXINGTON COMMUNITY Lexington, KY “…It is true! The Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon." Luke 24:34 April 2010 Well is spring in the air? March Madness is almost over. And with the spring walks being finished are we done with our work until the fall? This is just the beginning of all of our 4th Days. As we have all heard, today is the first of our 4th Days. Each day the Lord brings us Blessings and each day we are thankful for what he has given us. As I have been struggling to read the Bible every day I have been struggling in staying on the path the Lord has given me. Easter is coming and with Passover to be celebrated, we need to look at the gifts each one of us has to do the Lord‘s work. We have work to do with the Emmaus Community, our home church, our family and our friends. As it was during Moses‘ time it is here in our time. Exodus 36 ―The LORD has gifted Bezalel, Oholiab, and the other skilled craftsmen with wisdom and ability to perform any task involved in building the sanctuary. Let them construct and furnish the Tabernacle, just as the LORD has commanded.‖ 1 So Moses summoned Bezalel and Oholiab and all the others who were specially gifted by the L ORD and were eager to get to work. 3 Moses gave them the materials donated by the people of Israel as sacred offerings for the completion of the sanctuary. But the people continued to bring additional gifts each morning. 4 Finally the craftsmen who were working on the sanctuary left their work. 5 They went to Moses and reported, ―The people have given more than enough materials to complete the job the LORD has commanded us to do!‖ 2 As with the times of Moses; we are also now gifted with skills, wisdom and ability to do the Lord‘s work. And build the Temples within each of us. Let each of us take time to pray and see the gifts we have been given and to apply those gifts to the work of the Lord. During the quiet time between the Spring Walks and the Fall Walks we still need to be building the body of Christ. Stay with what your Walk taught you and stay in the path that the Lord has for you. All of our Temples need to be built as the Lord has commanded us. Let us help build others Temples to God‘s specifications. In this Easter season remember what Christ did for all of us and humble yourself to take the time to see what the Disciples did after the Risen Christ met with them. They went out and spread the Gospel and the Love of Christ to all. Let us all share this Love and Gospel. Pray that we may see those that have gifts that the Walk can nurture and develop for the future of Christianity and the building of their Temples. May you all have a safe and Happy Easter. In your and Christ‘s Service, Earl Taylor eTa <>< 1 Lexington Chrysalis News Hello All, There is a little bit of excitement happening right now in regards to the Lexington Chrysalis community. There are some plans in process that will help build and move this part of the community forward and hopefully give it more strength to change the lives of even more young people. Here are a couple of the things that are in the works and discussion right now. We had our first Chrysalis ―Follow-Up‖ during the March Gathering. The new butterflies of Flight #32 sang for the community and then proceeded to a time of fun, worship, reflection of the weekend, devotion, and communion. I think that although it had a few hiccups, it was an amazing success. So, I believe, this will be the format of things to come. In the future, I hope to see more of the table leaders and other team members there as well. A RUSH Retreat weekend, RUSH (Re Uniting Servant Hearts) is the new word for HOOT. The Upper Room had a renaming contest and RUSH won, so now all literature coming from Upper Room will feature the term RUSH instead of HOOTs. A RUSH Retreat will be for Chrysalis alumni, people who have gone on previous flights and want to get connected into the larger community. We are trying to work out plans with Aldersgate Camp to hold the retreat at their facility, now it is just a matter of working out the details. This weekend will also encourage youth and young people to take the next step in their Christian Faith and explore deeper some of the issues that were touched upon during the Chrysalis retreat. I will have more about this opportunity as it is planned out. The second major thing that is in discussion is the possibility of a SECOND CHRYSALIS FLIGHT. Yes, my friends, if you have wanted to sponsor someone for Chrysalis, but they are always busy in February, a second flight opportunity may be opening up soon. We may start with a small, test flight to gauge the response. More than likely it would take place on the first or second weekend in August, right before school starts. Needless to say, by adding a second Chrysalis, we will be able to use more youth on Chrysalis flights throughout the year, and hopefully keep the excitement going all year long. There are also some free standing Chrysalis RUSH events in the works, details will be revealed as they become available. If you have any questions or comments about any of the things I have mentioned, please feel free to contact me.

We made some ‗new best friends‘ and saw the new Emmaus DVD. It was different, but the message, not the media, is important. This message from Jesus is ―I want you to love me and serve me where you find yourself‖…whether the road leads to Emmaus or your town. Friday morning arrived with a glorious sunrise. We gathered in the Prayer Chapel, broke the overnight silence and bread with each other. Then Norbert Allen and his kitchen team provided a sumptuous breakfast to nourish our bodies as we walked towards Emmaus. One table of pilgrims sat together before Lay Director John Elder announced the assignments. They definitely felt the presence of the Holy Spirit. All the tables bonded quickly. The post-talk discussions were animated and their expressions were well prepared. Saturday was amazing. Growth was easily visible in the Conference Room. Tables began visits to the Chapel. Posters and skits were right on target across the board. Thank you, Lexington Emmaus Community for your presence at Candlelight to support Walk #111. Estes Chapel was astoundingly full! Agapeland was beautiful—one of the pilgrims could not believe that we were in the same room where we had already eaten five meals. Sunday was a dichotomy. It was dark, not a glorious sunrise [daylight savings time, you know]. We also did not leave campus for a worship service. However, on reflection, since Thursday at supper time we‘d taken Holy Communion twice and accrued 29 ½ hours in worship of one variety or another. We were promised on Thursday night that Friday would be good, Saturday better, and Sunday better still. We were not disappointed. Notes from more clergy talks on Grace and grace filled laity talks flooded our notebooks throughout the morning and early afternoon. WOW! Lay director John was right, Sunday was the best! At Closing, we heard some eloquent and some heartfelt witnessing from the newest members of our community. God‘s blessings to all on your Fourth Days.

From the beginning it seems that the Women‘s Walk #112 was meant to be a ―Walk of Prayer‖. Our fearless leader, Sharon Meade, was a prayer warrior from the earliest stages of team selection and continued to stay on her knees throughout the weekend and even now in our 4th days. Sharon was adamant that this be God‘s team and God‘s Walk. It began with three team members in the prayer chapel. Though only two were able to attend during the Walk, all three were kept busy by the prayer requests from the team. It seems Satan was attacking us from all sides, but we persevered through prayer. God guided Sharon through each obstacle and she was able to resolve each issue. Now that we are in our 4 th days, those prayer requests continue to flow through a new tool, Facebook! The weekend was truly all God. The tables came together quickly and it didn‘t take long for laughter to permeate the conference room….and the agape room….and the kitchen. We learned a new Emmaus time from Judy McVey, the ―floss and flush!‖ We also learned to dance and decided to add some moves to our theme song, ―The More I Seek You‖, thanks to Nietta Frazier. It was a blast learning about God‘s grace and His love together. The kitchen and agape teams spoiled us with taking care of our every need (even if we didn‘t want the extra cookie, Bruce Maybriar). The facilities team went above and beyond the call of duty by performing in the Chicken Song as the Maid and the Rooster! It was a hoot!! The community really showed up this weekend as well. It is very rare that a walk does not need additional letters and that is exactly what happened. The attendance at candlelight was wonderful! Estes Chapel glowed with friendly faces as we entered the doors. It was absolutely beautiful! That is a sign of great sponsorship and of great community support. Thank you so much! I look forward to seeing our newest pilgrims at Gatherings and future Walks. May God bless you all in your 4 th days to come! De Colores!

We are so happy that you accepted the invitation to participate in a Walk to Emmaus weekend, and sincerely hope you were able to enjoy the experience and grow in your faith. As discussed during the ―Fourth Day‖ talk, your faith journey should not end just because the Walk is over. In fact, we are confident that you will continue your journey into each of your ―fourth days‖, and that you will extend your experience into your everyday life. We encourage you to continue to grow in your relationship with Christ and to live as a faithful disciple. During the weekend, you were served by members of the Lexington Emmaus Community. Those that served did so because they are living as faithful disciples of Jesus Christ. The individuals that were part of your weekend were there because of their love for Jesus and their willingness and eagerness to share this Christian love with others. In fact, during the weekend, it was probably easy to see the face of Jesus in each person that was serving. The Community would like to ask you to volunteer to serve in some capacity. You may have already volunteered when you filled in your Fourth Day sheet; if so, Thank You! However, if you have not yet committed to serving, we ask that you seriously consider where your gifts could be used. There are so many varying opportunities for you to become involved, including: Working on a team Preparing a portion of or serving a meal Making Agape Providing snacks for a Walk Volunteering to be a Fourth Day speaker at a monthly gathering Sponsoring a Pilgrim on an upcoming walk Contributing to the Scholarship Fund You can find other opportunities on our website, www.lexingtonemmauscommunity.org, or talk to your sponsor for other ideas. The important point is that we are asking you to become involved in supporting and expanding the Lexington Emmaus Community. Remember the story in Luke 24:1335? After the disciples eyes were opened and they realized that Jesus had been with them during their journey from Jerusalem and during the meal, they did not just sit back and bask in the presence of Jesus. No, they got up and hurried back to Jerusalem in order to spread the news of the risen Christ. They served Christ in their witness to others. How will you serve? DeColores!
