Great memories! In answer to the ?s... Henri Nouwen has a lot of great meditations on being around the table together we used in church a few months ago. One service during this series we just got in groups of 5-10 and each group had a basket of different kinds of bread, some made by church members and just broke bread together and dialogued in community... and used the same bread for communion, the most significant shared meal... it was a great service. We have done various things around this gathering for meals such as setting up tables in the middle of the seating where we usually have chairs and have communion set at plates around the table to share the meal as well... and a weekly option is to take communion in our side worship room where we set up a table with 4 place settings weekly that people can sit around together for communion... We also have some friends we have dinner with on a regular basis. Usually just a simple Papa Murphy's pizza which avoids the barriers - stress about cooking, cleaning and time... Ok, instead of going on I'll just link to the intro to one of our communion's about intentionally sharing meals... <a href="http://travelingmercies.blogspot.com/2009/09/sharing-meals-with-each-other.html" target="_blank">http://travelingmercies.blogspot.com/2009/09/shar...</a> That is hilarious because I remember some intense Monopoly games Jeanne was involved in back in the day… with close to similar results.
