There is power when people eat together. That’s something we have learned at The Portico’s 1001 Gathering. When we put our knees under tables, share a meal and have conversation, relationships are formed. Strangers become acquaintances. Over time, acquaintances become friends. And together we participate in connection and community change.

Upcoming:

  1. August Potluck
  2. Weekly Launch, 1001 Gathering
  3. Community Meal
  4. It’s time to Let Go

August 14 Potluck Brunch. At the 1001 Gathering in August, we will have a potluck brunch! We have the main dish (Bacon/Eggs). Bring a breakfast dish, side, or dessert that will complement this Sunday brunch experience. 10:01 a.m. Kindly email Chalette@theportico.org to let her know what you’ll bring. Item ideas:
Bagels / Cream Cheese / Jam / OJ and other juices Mini Doughnuts / Cinnamon Rolls Fruit Bowl / Charcuterie Platter / Egg Muffins Breakfast Casserole / Biscuits and Gravy Casserole / Breakfast Taquitos

1001 Gathering Goes Weekly. We are close to the weekly launch. Join us: email me.

Community Meal.The monthly Community Meal immediately after The 1001 Gathering we will host a meal and fellowship with people who are hungry or who are experiencing homelessness.

Let Go. Last Sunday, we learned how to deal with our mistakes, regret, and how to “let go.” If you missed it, check it out here.

There are events and groups for you. See below. Remember, you are loved.
