Join Us for a Lenten Journey
The night before he died, Jesus invited his friends to supper. He planned every detail of their night together. In the upper room, Jesus washed his friends’ feet and gave his followers a new commandment, that we should love one another. On that same night, Jesus blessed, broke and gave bread to his disciples. They all drank from the cup on Jesus’ table.
For almost two millennia, the table has shaped our identity as Jesus-followers. We meet at the table regularly to remember Jesus, to experience his presence anew in our lives and to reaffirm our commitment to embody his table hospitality while we learn to love one another as he loved his first disciples.
During this Lenten season, we will join our neighbors, friends and siblings in the faith from South Acton Congregational Church and the United Church of Christ in Boxborough at the table. We will come together to share a meal of love on Wednesday evenings. There will be time for prayer, singing, and meditation on Jesus’ table sharing ministry. In this practice of eating and drinking together that combines food and fellowship, we hope to deepen our connection with each other so the wider community around our churches may know that we are Christians by our love.Rev. Ross Allen, Rev. Cindy Maybeck and Rev. Paulo França invite you to attend as many gatherings as possible.
Please sign up HERE to attend and/or to help us prepare the meals for the weekly gatherings. Helpers will be assisting with preparation of serving of soup and some cleanup. For further information, please contact Diane Scaletta at dmscaletta@gmail.com.
