This past week we hosted our last Table gathering before the summer sabbath. Tables is what our church calls Small Groups. We've hosted several semesters and this past season was, I think, our third time. We had a really large crew this year in our tiny space which was interesting at times but overall we enjoyed the season.
I always get a little stressed before the gathering because hosting is hard for me a lot of the times and I'm typically cranky right after work. But once everyone arrives and we were all seated and enjoying a meal and conversation, I always felt better. It's a positive stretching experience for me. And we are grateful for this loving community.
I love that you guys have hosted this so much! I'm the same way before gatherings, and also feel so much better as the evening goes on.
