Midday Mingle

Our Midday Mingle meal is a welcoming, Christ-centered gathering that brings people together around the table—just as Jesus did. Inspired by the early church (Acts 2:42–47), it combines a shared meal, meaningful conversation, worship, and prayer in a relaxed, authentic setting.

Each gathering includes a simple lunch, a short Bible-based message, and space to build real relationships. Whether you’re new to church or growing in your faith, you’ll find a place where you belong.

Midday Mingle is more than just a meal—it’s a time to build relationships, share life, and be encouraged.
Each gathering includes:

• A no/low cost delicious, home-style lunch
• Friendly conversation and community connection
• A welcoming, low-pressure environment
• Occasional devotionals, music, or guest speakers

This is a place where seniors and caretakers can step away from daily routines and experience genuine fellowship.

• Senior adults (60+)
• Caregivers (full-time or part-time)
