Advent Midweek Dinner Church
Wednesdays, Nov. 28 - Dec. 19
6:15p.m. - 7:45p.m.
OSLC Community Room
As we prepare ourselves for the celebration of Christmas, we invite you to join us on Wednesday evenings throughout the Advent season for a collaborative worship service in the “dinner church" style. Dinner church is communion in the purest sense. Together we will serve, sing, pray, and share, using liturgy that is deeply rooted in the Lutheran tradition and at the same time, familiar and welcoming. Through this integrated meal and worship we will be sustained in food, in conversation, and in community. Please plan to join us for the entirety of the dinner worship, from 6:15-7:45pm, and be prepared to be personally involved in the preparations and clean-up of each service!
RSVP your planned attendance HERE.
Vegetarian, Vegan, Nut-free, and Gluten-free options available! Please contact Kellie Lisi with special dietary needs: kellielisidavis@hotmail.com.
