Youth Emmaus 2

Published 25 April 2006
Youth Emmaus 2 is a fourteen-session interactive discipleship course for young people, designed to help 11- to 16-year-olds integrate their faith into life and to equip them as worshippers and disciples. It breaks down into two sections - Big Issues and Holy Spaces.
Big Issues (Sessions 1-7) tackles Jesus' sermon on the mount, engaging with issues like poverty and injustice, forgiveness and reconciliation, dreams and passions.
Holy Spaces (Sessions 8-14) explores creative ways of worshipping together - from protest to praise.
Each session includes detailed leaders' notes, ice-breakers, theme-focused activities, ideas for worship and multimedia suggestions. It's suitable as a discipleship course, a post-confirmation resource, or a framework for a series of one-off events or a youth residential. It's ideal as a follow-on from Youth Emmaus or as stand-alone material to help young people grow in discipleship.
The free CD-ROM includes handouts, resource sheets, PowerPoint presentations, cartoons and graphics, a youth Emmaus poster and a bookmark.

Youth Emmaus
by Stephen Cottrell, Sue Mayfield, Tim Sledge, and Tony Washington
Published 24 January 2003
Research has shown that the Emmaus - Way of Faith programme can be a successful tool for evangelism in the Church. This publication in the series is aimed specifically at young people and should be ideal for youth groups and as a confirmation course for young people. The subjects tackled in "Youth Emmaus" include: what Christians believe; how Christians grow; and living the Christian life. All the material has been road-tested across Great Britain with many different types of youth groups. Each session has leader's notes and fully photocopiable members' handouts, and is presented in a fresh, youth-orientated design. "Youth Emmaus" is accompanied by a free CD-ROM that includes: handouts and supplementary handouts for all sessions as PDF files; an Emmaus poster; downloadable services to use with young people and a section on using "Youth Emmaus" in an all-age context; a Powerpoint presentation on "Youth Emmaus"; useful links to Emmaus website; and all icons from the handouts, which are available in colour in a downloadable format.
Unlike other Christian basics courses, Emmaus carries on from the initial instruction. This is one of three books in Stage 3 which provides ideal material for groups who wish to go on learning after Baptism and Confirmation.
