ABOUT THE NAME
Before it becomes a
butterfly, a caterpillar goes through a growth stage
during which it is called a "chrysalis." On the surface
it may not look like much is happening, but the delicate
chrysalis process changes the fuzzy caterpillar into an
awesome butterfly with wings of intricate designs and
intense colors. The chrysalis process symbolizes how
Christ can transform you into something beyond your
dreams. It happens when you grow beyond yourself,
opening your life to Jesus' power and love.
"Chrysalis" is the
name chosen for the youth and young adult version of The
Walk to Emmaus, its parent movement, because it
symbolizes the spiritual growth that is essential
between adolescence and adulthood. That growth is as
crucial for youth as the cocoon is for the caterpillar.
It is that precious time of nurturing a person's faith
for discipleship.
