Our Friday and Sunday sessions cater to adults of all ages and children grades 6 and under. Friday evening is also our “Youth Night” session, offering classrooms and content for grades 7 - 12. We encourage our families with teens to attend our Friday session.
We understand that sometimes life gets in the way of in-person attendance. All of our Emmaus teachings are recorded for viewing at home and this Zoom discussion group allows you to dive deeper into the topics. There is no Emmaus Online content for children, therefore online attendance is not an option for sacramental preparation.
If you have any questions, please contact Haley Judd at haley@christthekingnh.org
Registration is now open.

What is Emmaus?
Emmaus is Christ the King's central faith formation program, where every disciple of Christ of every age can come and grow deeper in their Catholic faith and deeper in fellowship with their church community. We share a meal, enjoy time as a whole community, and then divide for age-appropriate lessons on the same topic.
Is Emmaus for me?
Emmaus is for every stage of life and generation. Whether you are a young adult, married couple, or family of any shape and size - whether you are new to the faith or have a degree in theology, you are welcome at Emmaus!
Why is it called Emmaus?
In the Gospel of Luke 24:13-35, we see two disciples walking the road to Emmaus when suddenly, Jesus appears to them. As they walk and talk, Jesus explains the Scriptures to them, and “their hearts burn within them.". At the end of the journey, in the breaking of the bread, they recognize Jesus, only to have Him vanish. Immediately, they run out and share their encounter with the risen Lord. Our vision for Emmaus is captured in this Scripture; that we would walk together, discuss our faith, encounter Jesus, and then go forth to share what we have learned.
