On The Table

The Weekly Announcement of Common Table Church

Wednesday, February 17, 2010

February 15th through 21st

Hi Church!

Hey, remember when we were going to have a party, and then there was a snowstorm, and later we had the party after all? Well, at the risk of deja vu, you are cordially invited to:

Jon White Inaugural Balderdash and Martini Contest

If you were part of the Jon White Pictionary Event last year, you will have some idea of what this year's event is going to be like. (And if you weren't there, click through to the slide show and you'll get a taste!) I'm not saying Michaele and Tareq Salahi will crash this party - just that they would like to.

Where: Pete and Jackie's (12644 Stoa Ct, Herndon, VA 20170)

When: Saturday, February 20, 7:30PM

Bring: Ingredients you believe should be included in the Perfect Martini.

Dress:
Men - Black tie / International Man of Mystery
Women - Whatever goes with that

Balderdash and cards will be available.

(Yes, we know Lent just started. What's your point? Saturday is a feast day in the Common Table calendar of saints: the feast of St. Jon!)

If you're looking for a more contemplative, transformative way to begin the Lenten season, though, please join us at 10am on Sunday at Jammin' Java for our regular worship service, which will be a simple, meditative time of silence and chanting in the tradition of the Taize community. It's our third of these in recent months, with the fullest collection of gifted musicians yet to accompany us.

And that's all for this week. May your Lenten journey be blessed, and may it form you.

Peace,

Mike Croghan
