As part of our ongoing nurture initiative, some pupils attend The Table every two weeks, The Table is a fantastic resource for the local community that we are incredibly proud to be part of, see below for further information
The Table is open
between 12 and 1.30pm on Mondays
in St Peter’s Church,
Rose Hill, Holywell
For two years, the £2 Food Club in St Peter’s has provided much needed practical, spiritual and emotional support to our community and now we are re-launching as ‘The Table’, which hopes to make this project sustainable for the long-term.
What is the Table?
The Table is run by St Peter’s Church in Holywell to support all in our community. There are no barriers to attending and we are open to all. There are a number of aspects to the Table and you can read about them here.
Eating Together
At the heart of the Table is the chance to enjoy a free lunch together, to meet with friends old and new and support each other. You can drop in anytime between 12 and 1.30 for lunch and a chance to chat.
The Pantry
The Table will always have a supply of food and other essentials for all those who come. There will be no barriers to using the Pantry.
While we’re open for lunch (12 – 1.30), you’ll be able to go into the Pantry and get a selection of things to stock up your cupboards. The exact amount will depend on what we have received.
We suggest a £2 donation, if you are able, so that this part of the Table can continue.
Sign-Posting and Support
At the Table, we’ll always have someone to lend a listening ear and provide pastoral care and support – which is open to people of all faiths and none.
As well as a listening ear, we can signpost you to a range of other sources of help.
Bread of Life
The Table always begins with a gathering at the Lord’s Table to share worship in a reflective service, to which all are welcome. Whether you’ve been to church all your life or you’re not sure about any of it, you’re welcome to come and enjoy the service.
The service starts at 11.30am and lasts for 30 mins.
Donate
As you’ll all know, the Table has been running in St Peter’s since the beginning of the pandemic and has supported over 3000 people in our community with food and a place to be signposted to other sources of support.
