Table Talk: More Than a Meal

7/12/2026 - Seventh Sunday after Pentecost. Communion Sunday. Pastor Lynn Gorton will continue the sermon series, “Table Talk,” with the sermon, “More Than a Meal.”

Join Lynn Gorton as she explores the sacred power of the table in our lives and faith.

In this message, Lynn invites you on a warm journey back to her childhood in a lively Catholic family of eight, where Sunday dinners around a gingham-covered picnic table became holy ground—filled with abundant meals, laughter, deep conversation, and the centering rhythm of grace before every bite.

Drawing from the beloved story of the Road to Emmaus, Lynn will share how two disciples walked with the risen Jesus yet only recognized Him when He sat at the table, took bread, blessed it, broke it, and gave it to them.

Through this and other Gospel meals, she’ll reveal how Jesus consistently used the table as a place of revelation, grace, belonging, and transformation.Lynn will also offer practical ways we can practice life-giving “Table Talk” today—making room for others, listening deeply, sharing our stories, practicing gratitude, and creating space for Christ to dwell richly among us.

Don’t miss this inspiring invitation to rediscover the table as one of the most powerful places where our eyes can be opened and our hearts can burn once again with the presence of the risen Christ.
