A participant, commonly known as a pilgrim for Emmaus and a caterpillar for Chrysalis, has a sponsor.  The sponsor, already having attended an Emmaus or Chrysalis weekend, will:

• Assist with the application and preparation process
• Provide transportation to and from the event
• Help with any personal responsibilities that the participant may have during the weekend
• Pray for the participant before, during and after the weekend
• Encourage participation at Group Reunions and monthly Community Gatherings
