About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

Welcome to Common Table!

Common Table is an open community of believers and seekers, invited to gather around a common table, share a meal, and engage in deep and meaningful conversation about things that matter, especially spiritual things. Out of these experiences, an intentional community is born, providing space for healing, exploring our faith journeys, and strengthening our relationships with each other and with God, as we determine how best we can live our lives as followers of Jesus.

We're so excited to see you again in our second year of events!

What you can expect:

We'll begin the event asking you to take a seat and start a conversation with new or familiar friends at your table. We'll serve you an appetizer while you converse. When it is time for the entree to be served, we'll begin a short speaking program. As we wrap up our entrée and move into our dessert, we'll have time for a Q&A and reflections, along with continued conversation. We'll end our evening by inviting those who are comfortable to participate in a short spiritual practice. It is our hope that this evening will bring you opportunities to make new connections with others, think deeply, and, most importantly, have fun!
