What is  Chrysalis?

CHRYSALIS is the growth stage between caterpillar's 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 new beings Jesus Christ can transform us into something beautiful. We must

open ourselves to Jesus for this transformation to occur.

CHRYSALIS is the name chosen for the Youth Walk to Emmaus because it symbolizes faith growth in the lives of youth---the spiritual growth that is necessary between adolescence and  adulthood. It is n crucial time of maturing faith for discipleship.

CHRYSALIS has its roots deeply planted in its parent movement, the Walk to Emmaus.

 CHRYSALlS 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 friend in the body of Christ,

and how one is called into discipleship, giving love to a needful world
