United Christian and Presbyterian Church

Our first event of the year. Gather with us for a meal, for conversation and spiritual food for thought.

Our first "Dinner Church" night:  March 23, 6 p.m. Child care is also provided. RSVP at (816) 296-3996."

We are trying something new.  Something old as well.  It's the simple and yet compelling idea that when people eat together they share life and connection.  We've noticed that there are plenty of folks out there who don't find the traditional ways of doing church to be their thing.  They are wary.  Many have been hurt.  Excluded.  At the bare minimum, people tell us that they have their reasons for not trusting church.  We hear that.  And so . . . we are inviting friends and neighbors to come try something different.  We will have a monthly evening meal.  We provide the food.  The format is open.  We will talk about life, about how to live it faithfully.  We will show a short video or even a movie to get the discussion going.  No one will be condemned for their thoughts.  We are all trying to learn.  Our premise:  God is generous beyond our imagination.  Jesus is the image of God, who came to show us how to live in a world that often lacks compassion and truth.
