Chrysalis - New Youth Ministry Opportunity
You can help start an exciting new youth ministry in New England!
Saturday, June 12th 9 - 4
St. John’s UMC, Dover, NH
So you may be wondering, “what is Chrysalis?” Well, let me tell you…
Chrysalis seeks to provide life-changing opportunities for youth through encounters with Christ. Chrysalis Flights (3 days) are designed to provide youth, in grades 10-12, with an opportunity for spiritual renewal and growth in a cloistered environment (aka: a retreat free of all the distractions of everyday life!) Through down-to-earth talks given by other youth along with lay and clergy adults, powerful worship experiences, great music, and incredible fellowship (both on the flight and long afterward), you’ll be equipped with the necessary tools to be a better leader in spreading the Gospel at home, school, church, and in the world. On a Chrysalis Flight you’ll experience the love of God through prayers and the acts of service from a loving support community. Think of it as three days for you to discover or re-discover your spiritual self, to analyze, and realize who you are in Christ. Chrysalis is coming to Dover, New Hampshire to serve northern New England!

What is this meeting on Saturday June 12th ?
It is the initial kick off meeting that our steering committee has set up to bring together New England people with the Chrysalis leaders from the Northeast USA and The Upper Room in Nashville. We are expecting the International Director of Emmaus and Chrysalis, Mr. Gregg Enroff. Information, training, initial team selection and answers to your questions will be discussed. Lunch will be available.
Who is coming to this meeting?
Besides you, we are expecting anyone interested in Chrysalis, Youth and Adults, and anyone else that can help Chrysalis become a part of our New England youth outreach plus people that have attended Emmaus Walks, Chrysalis Flights, Youth Leaders, Lay people and pastors. Chrysalis is an ecumenical in nature and it is important that a broad Christian Community work together to give young people this gift of God’s grace that is finally available in this part of New England.
