Commons

Modeled on the Danish concept of hygge โ€” companionable coziness โ€” Commons is a time for community members (affiliated with the church or not) to gather, prepare a meal together, spend time together while it cooks, and then eat it together! Well-behaved dogs are welcome.

This will happen almost every Monday through the end of 2024, at least. There’s no charge for this. Bring your knitting, bring a book, bring a friend. Get cozy and get to know whoever shows up: neighbors, friends, and so-far strangers. We’ll build relationships and we’ll build resilience.

The meal is simple but slow. As it cooks some will break for midday prayer (it is a church after all), but no one has to โ€” and no one will be left alone. We’re learning as we go how best to gather and live, so we hope you’ll join us and be a part of that learning.
