Unlike most church plants which move farther out to newer, growing suburbs, Emmaus chose to be a voice for the risen Savior in Hopkins, St. Louis Park and surrounding areas. Starting with 50 adults, a lot of the first year was spent getting organized and seeking God’s vision for the church.   2006 saw a doubling in size and affiliation with the Evangelical Covenant Church. In July, 2006 we held our first "24", our annual event of 24 hours of prayer. 24 has become a highlight of our year.   In 2007, we moved to Eisenhower community center. This enabled us to have more time each Sunday to meet and connect as a community.   In August, 2008, Craig Case, our founding pastor decided to leave Emmaus.   In February, 2009, the congregation voted to begin the search for a new pastor by voting on the current search committee.   Due to remodeling of Eisenhower, we moved to Hopkins High School for June, 2009.   In July, 2009, we moved into a more permanent home, to a church building owned by Ascension Lutheran in St. Louis Park.   In April 2010 our new pastor, Kevin Johnson, came to Emmaus.   Welcome!  What's An Emmaus?
