Emmaus Bible College began its teaching program in 1959, with the vision to prepare young people for overseas missionary service and for ministry within Christian Brethren assemblies. Today, they continue to offer a variety of courses to educate Christians to be effective in the local church, community and the mission field; to reach all with the gospel and encourage one another to continue in their faith. Emmaus offers Higher Education Courses, Vocational Courses and Non-Accredited Courses. Non-accredited courses include Emmaus’ correspondence subjects as well as short courses relevant the local church.
