Emmaus 90 started with a desire to provide a resource for couples who want to sanctify their marriage. This desire led to a fundamental question: what do married couples need right now? Inspired by his Catholic identity and led by the Holy Spirit, Adam Mallette - creator and founder of Emmaus 90 - arrived at a simple answer: married couples need role models, but not just any role models. We need to develop relationships with and learn from the people who were so devoted to the vocation of marriage that they became saints.
Many of the saints who are most well-known were celibate and had religious vocations. While people like St. Mother Teresa, St. Francis, and Pope Saint John Paul II are indeed among the most admirable saints to ever live, their day-to-day lives were very different from the average married person. To quote Mother, we must all find our own Calcutta; for those of us called to the vocation of marriage, Calcutta primarily means loving our spouse as Christ loved the Church. To learn how, Emmaus 90 introduces you to 90 married saints with unique and inspirational stories about how their love for God and spouse transformed the world.
Emmaus 90 is a program designed for all couples, irrespective of how long you have been married, your religious affiliation, and the strength of your relationship with your spouse. If you have a desire to strengthen your marriage and become a better spouse by developing stronger habits and by learning from some of the holiest married people ever to live, then Emmaus 90 is designed for you.
Like the disciples on the Road to Emmaus, journey with Christ as he breaks open his Word and shares his life with us.
For 90 days, intentionally focus on loving God and your spouse the way you hoped to on your wedding day.
Be inspired by the lives of married saints to discover new ways to grow in holiness as a spouse.
Emmaus 90 is a 90-day program for couples of all ages striving for holiness in their marriage based on the principle that we are called to continuously grow in loving God and our spouse more perfectly. There are three components of the program that are designed to facilitate transformative change in these relationships.
Prayer and Walking With Married Saints
Discipline and Habit Development
Accountability
Developing your relationship with God is the foundation of all spiritual growth. Commit to routines of individual and couple prayer to better understand your heart and that of your spouse. Together, learn to recognize God’s will for your marriage. Sign up for emails to learn about, reflect upon, and pray with married saints.
With your spouse, commit to specific ways you will live selflessly for 90 days.
Follow through on your commitments and watch yourself become a better spouse.
Check in with your spouse daily to hold each other accountable. Spend at least 5 minutes per day discussing the following questions:
How well did I love you today?
How can I love you better tomorrow?
Sign up for daily emails to support your journey toward becoming a holier spouse.
