- 1st and 3rd Sundays we worship around a dinner table at our Emmaus Meal and Worship. The style is based on the traditional structure of worship but is freer in form. We do experiential ritual and music. The sermon is a brief reflection followed by dinner conversation in which all those gathered are invited to reflect. The meal is made by those gathered and with produce from the farmer's market.
