Needs of the Community

Our Emmaus Community is looking for "a few good photographers" who would like to offer their services to take group photographs during our Emmaus Walks. You don't have to be a professional, but if you do photography as a hobby or sideline and would like to be of service to your Emmaus Community, please email us or call Teresa Cantrell at 615-597-7411.
Interpretive Dance Teams are needed for the Chrysalis and Journey Flights. Teams would need to consist of young men and women who have previously attended a Journey or Chrysalis. If you would like to make a suggestion, please contact Susan Asberry at 931-397-2987 or 931-823-8811. You can also email her at this link: Susan Asberry @ susanasberry@yahoo.com.
We also need suggestions for Entertainment for the Emmaus Walks. We need individuals or groups who sing, do interpretive dance or drama presentations. We also need persons who enjoy the "MC" spotlight. Telling a good joke comes in handy for this as well as being able to interact easily with the men and women of the walks. If you have a suggestion, please contact Cindy Edwards at 931-704-6695 or send an email at this link: Cindy Edwards @ tcedw@msn.com.
