The Emmaus House of Apostolate is a place of compassion and hope, for
those who're impoverished and nearing the end of their lives. It is located in
Malolos, Bulacan. Has been providing support to the vulnerable members of
society since its establishment in 1984. This residential neighborhood was
founded with the purpose of serving Christ and extending love to those in
need. Throughout the years it has served as a sanctuary, for individuals
requiring assistance.

<h1> A Humble Beginning </h1>

The seeds of Emmaus House of Apostolate were sown on November 22,
1984, under the guidance of Rev. Florentino Concepcion, a Catholic priest
inspired by the compassion of Mother Teresa of Calcutta and the vision of
Bishop Cirilo R. Almario Jr.The initial group of indigent patients, abandoned
by their families and burdened with mounting medical bills, found solace in a
rented house near the railways in Catmon, Malolos, where Fr. Florentino,
affectionately known as Fr. Boyet, welcomed them with open arms.

<h1> A Growing Need for Space </h1>

As more patients sought refuge at Emmaus House of Apostolate, the need for
a larger space became evident. The apostolate's faith in the providential care
of the Heavenly Father never wavered, and with the support of the
community, they moved to their second home in Barihan, Malolos, Bulacan.
The apostolate became a haven for individuals such as TB-stricken
outpatients, sore-infected street-bums, and those rejected by their families.
The spirit of the apostolate was not confined to the walls of the house; it
extended its reach to embrace the loneliest and most marginalized members
of society.

<h1> The Birth of a Permanent Home </h1>

In 1985, a significant milestone was achieved when the generous Caparas
family bequeathed their 1,527 square meter property in Caingin, Malolos,
Bulacan to serve as the permanent site of Emmaus House of Apostolate. With
the combined efforts of the apostolate's dedicated workers, the house was
built and continues to stand as a testament to love and service.

<h1> Extending a Helping Hand </h1>

Emmaus House of Apostolate has become a beacon of hope, for individuals
facing circumstances. The apostolate relies heavily on the dedication of
volunteers who generously contribute their time and skills to address the
residents administrative, dietary, hygiene and medical requirements. Yet the
apostolates mission extends beyond fulfilling necessities; its aim is to guide
lost souls to the loving embrace of our Heavenly Father and ignite within
them a profound yearning for a meaningful connection, with God.

<h1> Reaching Out to the Poorest of the Poor </h1>

Reaching out to the individuals regardless of their material, spiritual or social
conditions is, at the core of our mission. Our efforts extend to groups who
find themselves in circumstances; incarcerated individuals seeking
acceptance and justice; impoverished individuals burdened by ongoing
concerns about their healthcare; families residing in underserved areas
struggling to secure their next meal; and young people who have lost their
way yearning for attention and a sense of belonging. Our goal is to provide
support and guidance, to those who are facing difficulties helping them
discover Gods presence in their lives and opening doors towards a future.
