“I believe the time is right for the stated vision of Emmaus to become reality: ‘a biblically literate and passionately Catholic community, filled with the knowledge and love of Christ, through a deepening understanding of Sacred Scripture and its centrality in the life and liturgy of the Church.’”
-James Conley, Bishop of Lincoln
