SUMMARY:Faith Around The Table
DESCRIPTION:Are you hungry for meaningful conversation and deeper connection with your First Church community? Do you like to eat food? Then this group is for you! One Sunday a month from 5:00pm to 7:00pm\, each group of 8 people gathers for a potluck meal and discusses a topic relating to faith and spiritual formation. Group members commit to meeting for six months. We’ve identified group leaders who will lead each group and host the first meeting with potential for others to host subsequent gatherings or use church space. Groups will launch in November. Come be a part of what others in the church have found to be deeply meaningful and nourishing!\n\nPlease email Andrew Schumacher (andrew.r.schumacher@gmail.com) for more info and to sign up.
