THE EMMAUS STORY

Worship at Emmaus

Emmaus began in the fall of 2011. Members of a bible study that gathered in a
living room near Winter Garden, requested that Pastor David start a reformed
church in Winter Garden. The Lord had already been working in Pastor David’s
heart about doing just that. Led by Pastor David, the little Bible study of 15
people moved forward with the church plant. Now they needed a place to gather.

Pastor David was approached by another church plant in Winter Garden with an
opportunity. They were leasing space in an office park off Colonial Drive –
across from Maryland Fried Chicken. The location was near downtown Winter
Garden, and the church offered to share the space by renting it on Sunday
evenings. Emmaus accepted the offer and started meeting on Sunday nights on
December 11, 2011.

Emmaus grew slowly and steadily over the next five years, meeting on Sunday
evenings, enjoying powerful worship, developing strong relationships, and
solidifying a strong church family. Although this was a great space for Emmaus
to launch, the evening service – and a children’s room across a dark parking lot
– presented challenges.

In the Fall of 2016 Emmaus was approached by the Garden Theatre and asked to
consider leasing the theatre on Sunday mornings. Emmaus was currently meeting in
a 100 seat space in an office park, using another church’s equipment. The Garden
Theatre had 300 seats. This presented a great opportunity for growth – but it
would be a major undertaking.

Emmaus would need to purchase its own sound equipment. The theatre was more
expensive to rent – and the Winter Garden Church would also need to lease the
Garden Ballroom for its children’s ministry. Some of the church leaders were
nervous about taking on the added responsibility. After much prayer, and
planning, Emmaus decided to answer the call.

The Emmaus community was convinced that God was calling them to gather as a
church in the heart of Winter Garden. They entered an agreement to lease the
theatre – and the ballroom – in January of 2017. Before moving to the theatre,
they would need to raise funds: 6 months of additional rent, and the funds to
purchase the sound equipment they need for their new church home.

Emmaus embarked on a fundraising campaign entitled Answer the Call. It included
an appeal for donations, a silent auction, and other fundraising events. The
Emmaus family raised all of the funds needed to relocate and move its church
gathering to downtown Winter Garden. On January 8, 2017, Emmaus had its first
church service at the Garden Theatre.

The transition to the Garden Theatre was covered by the Orange Observer.
