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

Reflection on Today’s Gospel
- Discussion Starters: John 13.1, 31-33, 34-35
- How does an act of humility or compassion sometimes get to be misunderstood?
- Can you think of a time when you were criticized or misunderstood, or perhaps you thought another weak or a pushover when this new commandment was in full action?
- Invite the Holy Spirit to bring to your mind, who and how your love is needed in a special way, each day this week.
- Acknowledge someone else’s act of love and/or friendship when experienced.
