We believe in just peace which means that world peace will be achieved through justice for all

We are open and affirming which means that we welcome QT (queer and/or trans) people intentionally, and people of all gender identities and sexual orientations

We strive to be anti-racist which means we commit to seeking and supporting racial justice for all peoples

We believe that God is still speaking in sacred and contemporary texts and through creation itself

Broken, Exposed, Resurrected: A 12-Step Journey thru Lent: Week 3

Acceptance of our selves and all that has made us into who we are, can be a challenge. Inviting God into the hard places and the pain, can make it a bit easier.

We are all God's beloved.

Broken, Exposed, Resurrected: A 12-Step Journey thru Lent, Week 2

Unknowing is often uncomfortable. We are invited into the Mystery that is God, and we are wrapped in Love.

Lent can provide a space to explore the rough edges of ourselves and/or our community, and invite the Spirit to smooth them into something beautiful and new.

What is Living Table?

Living Table is a community of people who are on a spiritual journey. We seek to follow the radical teachings of Jesus that focus on liberation and justice for all peoples. We have a diversity of perspectives on who Jesus is and was, but we are committed to embodying the love he taught, love of neighbor and self that is unconditional.

We are a group of believers, seekers, followers, and skeptics. We firmly believe that all people have a place at God’s table. Therefore, each Sunday we celebrate that Christ is the host, Christ sets the table, and Christ welcomes all.
