Gathering at the Table (Prayerbooks)

Blurb

Every table all week long, every meal, is an echo of the Sunday past, an anticipation of the Sunday to come. Make the connection between the Lord's supper and your family dinner with this book. Of cookbooks there are a multitude. Though this book has three recipes, it is no cookbook. It is an invitation-to-cook book - and more. Elizabeth Hoffman Reed has written a simple praise of dining, a call to go to the market and to the stove and to the table. But this invitation is also a challenge: Do you love your food as you could? Her brief reflections are interspersed with wonderful and varied quotations. From all directions come insights and delight about food and dining. If we live from the bread and wine we receive at the table of Sunday worship, what do we do to honor the food on the other tables of our lives? Share these insights with family and friends around any mealtime table, or use them to inspire you to see extraordinary blessings in the ordinary actions of cooking and dining. Quantity pricing allows you to purchase copies for any size group. Encourage distribution with the parish bulletin, to parish or community groups, or to school families.
