At the heart of Messy Church is the table
At the heart of Messy Church is the table—a place of welcome, connection, and transformation. Gathering around a meal isn’t just about feeding our bodies; it’s about nourishing our souls and deepening relationships with God and one another.
In a world that often feels rushed and disconnected, the tables at Messy Church offer a sacred space where all are valued, heard, and included. Whether we gather around an activity table to make bracelets showing our connection in prayer, or a game table to learn more about the bible story or end our Messy time with gathering around a table to fill our bodies with healthy food, build relationships with one another and with Christ. At all the Messy tables, we meet as equals, sharing stories, activities, food and God’s love.
