The Emmanuel Community brings together people who share a common call, who commit themselves, with the image of that of the first believers who had "only one heart and one soul!" (Acts 4, 32). Each one commits for one year. This community addresses to men and women from the ordinary, professional and social life, of different classes, ages and nationalities, in respect of the vocation suitable for each one. Thus it gathers married people as well as single people, young people, priests, those consecrated in celibacy.... By the common recognition of this call, a strong solidarity and unity in the Community are brought forth.
The unity of the members of the Emmanuel Community is not only expressed in their fraternal life, i.e. the Community meetings, the households but also in various services of compassion and evangelisation. |
