CHRYSALIS is the growth stage between caterpillars and butterflies. While on the surface it may look like nothing is happening, the delicate process changes a caterpillar into a butterfly with wings and beautiful colors. This symbolizes that through dying to self Christ can transform us into something beautiful. We must open ourselves to Jesus for this transformation to occur. CHRYSALIS FLIGHT is the name chosen for the Young Adult Walk To Emmaus because it symbolizes faith growing in the lives of young adults ... the spiritual growth that is necessary between adolescence and adulthood. It is a crucial time of maturing faith for discipleship.
CHRYSALIS has its roots deeply planted in its parent movement, the Walk To Emmaus. The CHRYSALIS FLIGHT is a three-day spiritual renewal retreat that provides participants an opportunity to learn more about faith, to experience Christian love and support, and a chance to make new commitments in their faith journey. The content of the three days focuses on God's grace, how one experiences Christ as a friend in the body of Christ, and how one is called into discipleship giving love to a needful world.
