The Kitchen Table

The Kitchen Table is the saint ben’s version of a vestry (or church board), so called because our very earliest meetings were held around a big kitchen table in our first church home, the long-closed St Alban’s Anglican Church.

This group gathers monthly, to consider not only the usual church board matters such as budgets and staffing, but also to act as something of a discernment group and sounding board for the wider saint benedict's table community.

Statement of Openness

In the spirit of St Benedict, who said “let all guests who arrive be received as Christ,”
saint benedict’s table strives to be a welcoming place for people of all identities, orientations, backgrounds and beliefs.
And we strive to be accountable to each other
as we commit to embodying the life and teachings of Jesus Christ who said
“I was a stranger and you welcomed me.” (Matthew 25:35)
