Blue Lake Walk to Emmaus • Andalusia, Alabama
Since 1985

Blue Lake Emmaus history

The Walk to Emmaus grew from the Cursillo tradition. The Protestant Upper Room Cursillo developed in the 1970s and became known as Walk to Emmaus in 1981.

Blue Lake’s Emmaus ministry began in 1985. Its first men’s and women’s weekends were held that year, establishing a community that has continued through hundreds of walks.

Historical notes from the original records: Walk 164 was held out of chronological order after Hurricane Dennis; Walk 257 after Hurricane Irma; Walk 258 after Hurricane Nate; Walk 261 was cancelled and not rescheduled; and Walk 282 was held out of chronological order due to potential tropical weather.
