Summer Table Fellowships
Mission through Meals
Join a Summer Table Fellowship in Your Area
Throughout his gospel, Luke highlights how often Jesus teaches about His Kingdom within the context of meals. While the purpose of His mission is to "seek and save the lost" and "to serve by giving His life as a ransom for many," he adopts the strategy of "eating and drinking" with others as a means of embodying the salvation he brings (Luke 19:10, Mark 10:45, Luke 7:34).
This summer we invite you to discover how 6 meals with Jesus in Luke, shared in homes throughout St. John's Parish, will help us experience God's grace, community, and mission.
- Table Fellowships will meet for 6 meals at a home in your area from June 12 through August 29.
- To learn more and sign-up contact Lori Moore or follow this link: Sign up to join a table here.
- Please contact Lori Moore for more information at 843-513-7463 or email lori@stjohnsparish.net if you would like more information on hosting, co-hosting, and participating.
