There must always be a place for the welcomed guest. No one can be excluded based on color, education, taste, wealth, physical limitation, orientation, gender, or age. There are no closed doors. We must provide full access. Our church doors must be open and our homes open to welcome all people into the wider community of faith.
Hospitality is one of the vital signs of a healthy, dynamic church.
And the primary expression of this health, of our life together, is when we gather around this table and invite everyone who is hungry for true life to come. The Lord's hospitality toward us frees us to be hospitable toward others. And here at his table there is always room for one more. For all who hunger and thirst for righteousness and healing and acceptance, this is the place to come. Come as you are - no jacket required, no entrance fees, no club dues, no barriers, no requirements other than a willing heart, to receive the bread of heaven and drink the cup of salvation and be served by this gracious host.
