37 years since its foundation, the work of Emmaus Center continues.
Finds affirmation after 11 years of existence in Pastores Daba Vobis and 27 years in The Use of Psychology in the Admission and Formation of Candidates to the Priesthood.

34. Our Mission
“Many have already discovered here, to their great delight, how truly loved they are by God.
Many have since gained much needed knowledge and skills for the work of formation.
Many have "gotten up, taken their mats, and (joyfully) gone home" (Mark 2:11) to their respective mission fields with a deeper felt-sense of the Good News and a deeper aching to share it wherever they are.”
“This is Emmaus Center’s way of contributing to the strengthening of the universal and local Church.”

35. Emmaus Today and the Episcopal Vicars for Clergy
On-going formation
Presumes initial formation was done well
Remedial needed?
At Emmaus, on-going formation is role related: for formators, for superiors, why not for vicars for clergy?
OFC not limited to updating but for those with critical roles, competency is important
Updating that covers not only foundational psycho-spiritual frameworks and essential personal accompanimet skills but forms the necessary dispositions to carry out one’s role as vicar for clergy.
