DINNER CHURCH ENCOUNTER
Saturday, January 15, 2022
9:30 a.m. (registration check-in)
10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. (program)
at the First Presbyterian Church
2344 Center Street
Bethlehem, PA 18017
This will be a Hybrid event (in-person & virtual) sponsored by Lehigh Presbytery.
Leaders across the country are rediscovering Jesus’ dinner table theology that dominated the Apostolic Era. The present-day Dinner Church movement is giving leaders and churches a renewed ability to reach people who would never attend their Sunday morning gatherings.
A Dinner Church Encounter is a ONE-day training event, beginning with the rich theological history of the dinner church vision, and progresses throughout the day toward more practical insights that would enable a leader or group to imagine hosting a Dinner Church in their own community.
Cost:
- In person $20 per person (includes training materials & lunch)
- On-line/virtual $10 per person (includes digital materials)
