The Crossroads Emmaus Community of the New England
Conference is a new place for persons, primarily from Maine, New
Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Connecticut to renew their Christian discipleship.
Pilgrims walk a new road to Emmaus and find their hearts strangely
warmed. At this crossroads a person is lifted up into a grace-filled
life to be lived and shared with others.
Crossroads expresses the idea of hospitality to
all who come, a place of convergence for diverse peoples from a
variety of locations. It also incorporates the cross - the symbol of
Christ and the Christian faith - and the meeting on the road to
Emmaus where Jesus opens the scriptures and reveals himself to those
who seek him.
Walks are held twice a year, once in the Spring
and once in the Fall. The next scheduled dates are:

Cursillo. We gather at 1:00 p.m. at Eliot for fellowship,
