Upper Room Guidelines Implementation Committee
The Upper Room Guidelines Implementation Committee is seeking 3-4 long standing
community members to participate in aligning the Fredericksburg Emmaus community
with the international Emmaus model. The committee’s objectives are to glorify
God in our service to Him, to honor our covenant with the Upper Room, and to
maintain the integrity of the Fredericksburg Emmaus experience. This committee
will examine the Emmaus manual to determine the differences between its
direction and our traditions. We will offer our findings and recommendations to
the Board for the resolutions of those differences. The committee meets twice a
month in Fredericksburg. Ava Hanger and Ken Roark are the Board representatives
and Pastor Greg Akers is serving as Spiritual Director for the committee. Please
pray for this effort. If you have any questions, want more details, or want to
serve, please contact me at: queendawn@juno.com

Daily Internet Prayer Chain
Would the Community like to have a Daily Internet Prayer Chain? A Prayer
Chain Coordinator would receive your daily prayer requests and distribute them
to the Community members who have signed up to receive and pray for them." Would
someone like to be the Prayer Chain Coordinator?" This would be a demanding
ministry but 'powerful and effective.'" Please contact Dick Barnett at k4guj@aol.com
