Practical Training to Get Your Dinner Church Off the Ground
About this Event

You love the idea of Dinner Church, but getting started feels daunting.

You need clear directions on the essential elements every dinner church includes. The Dinner Church toolkit will give you the clarity to craft a plan and get going.

In this three-hour, online training you and your team will learn how to:

Cook for a crowd
Create a welcome space for nones, dones and marginalized neighbors
Tell Jesus Stories that help Christians and non-Christians engage with the gospel
Organize a team of volunteers who love and take ownership of the mission

Dinner Church Toolkit is a three-hour training event for leaders and teams. During our time together, we’ll go beyond the inspirational stories of life-changing meals to experience and dig into nitty-gritty of how a Jesus Table can work.

On top of the training itself, you’ll receive a bonus 1 hour Q & A call just for you or your team!
