The Open Table
Come As You Are. Leave Fed, Filled & Seen Tues. May 27th, 5 – 6:30 pm, Holy Family Church
Cost: Take what you need. Give if you wish. Your presence is the real gift.
Organized by the Bruce-Grey Catholic District School Board. The Open Table is more than just a meal; it’s a movement where respect and care are the foundations. We affirm that every individual, regardless of who they are where they’ve come from, is welcome and belongs at our table. We believe in the power of connection. Our dedication to breaking down barriers is about growing a community where every individual feels welcome and included. Together, we’re nourishing both bodies and futures. Thank you for giving what you can
Let’s work together for a Scent-free Environment – please note some members of our community have very negative reactions to scents. Thank you.

Reflection on Today’s Gospel
- John 14: 23-29 Discussion Starters:
- What does it mean to you when Jesus says “We will come to him and make our home with him”
- What has the Holy Spirit taught you? Reminded you of?
- What can we strive to do with the peace that Jesus give us? How can we bear fruit with it?
