Through our worship and fellowship, we will celebrate the ways we are invited and welcomed to Come to the Table as well as challenge our assumptions around whom we welcome and invite.  Our day will be animated by the following scripture:

“On this mountain the LORD of hosts will make for all peoples a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wines, of rich food filled with marrow, of well-aged wines strained clear.”

~ Isaiah 25:26 (NRSV)
