Table Talk Time – Saturday, November 5, 2022


To All Church Members,

Your Niagara Ministry Area Leadership Team has planned another exciting opportunity for all our congregational members. We are delighted that Bishop Michael, along with Reverend Jennifer Hoover (Congregational Redevelopment Ministry Director) will be joining us for our 2nd Table Talk Time, similar to our very successful 2018 Table Talk session held at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church.

First Lutheran Church, 688 Elm St.,Port Colborne, will be hosting our gathering on Saturday, November 5, 2022, from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Parking is on Elm Street or in the parking lot behind the church (entrance off Snider St. Street, south of church). The elevator is located near the front church entrance.

The afternoon will begin with a Table Talk format for all congregational members, designed to provide an informal venue for learning and sharing. Bishop Michael and Pastor Jennifer, will talk about the Eastern Synod ministry and share some of their hopes and insights for the future of the church. Our time together will continue with a Q&A, and sharing. It will be your opportunity to ask questions, to reflect and to search for answers. Light snacks will be served.

Thank you for your support in your own congregation and in the life of all the Niagara Ministry Area parishes. Please remember one another and this event in your prayers.

We look forward to welcoming you and your members on Saturday, November 5th.

Sincerely,
Your Niagara Area Ministry Leadership Team – Reverend Julio Romero – Niagara Ministry Area Dean, Suzanne McClennan, Maria Featherston, Claudia Brema, David Smart, Reverend Bart Coleman, Dianne Yungblut
