SETTING
THE TABLE
for multiplication & mission
For Jesus, the table is a place where the broken find connection. In Jesus’ life we see him sharing a table with sinners and saints, the greedy and the generous, the rich and the poor, the popular and the rejected, the righteous and the unrighteous. We see him ALWAYS MAKING SPACE AT THE TABLE FOR SOMEONE ELSE.

PURPOSE
encounter & follow Jesus
From the Passover table to the Communion table, we see the heart of Jesus. When the table is mentioned in Scripture, we see a familiar place filled with hospitality, a place of humble servitude, and an ever-expanding table where there is always room for more.
For Jesus, the table is a place where the broken find connection. In Jesus’ life we see him sharing a table with sinners and saints, the greedy and the generous, the rich and the poor, the popular and the rejected, the righteous and the unrighteous.

PASTOR JOHN
explains the vision behind Setting The Table
Primary Goal
100% ENGAGEMENT
Setting the Table is first and foremost a discipleship initiative. We want to learn new things about God and ourselves. Our prayer is for every person at Declaration to take his or her next step and to grow in generosity.
Go through, go through the gates,
Clear the way for the people;
Build up, build up the highway,
Remove the stones,
lift up a banner over the peoples.
ISAIAH 62:10
