Testimonies
"I never imagined being in a household (small team) would be such an amazing experience. It can be so hard to live you faith in this world, but so much easier when you can share it with others who understand and support you. It's also encouraging to know that you are not alone and that you have others praying for you. It's definitely something I look forward to each week!" (Olivia, 27, Australia) “What I find strong in household is the prayer for each other. This prayer supports me in my daily life, throughout the difficulties I may have. Moreover, an international household has shown me that we can find brothers and sisters wherever we are all over the world.” (Maël, 21, France)
Emmanuel Youth
Emmanuel youth want to live with God, who is close and who is interested in the life of each one of them. Together they come to experience that Christ loves them and calls them to be a sign of hope for others. Their joy and dynamism comes from a common commitment to take the Gospel to everybody. We meet in a small group (household) one evening a week or once a fortnight and at several weekends during the year. We organize missionary and charitable projects. We make a commitment for a year and then we renew our commitment if we wish.
