Lunch and snacks are provided.

She marvels at seeing Jesus in anyone and everyone, and loves hearing God's voice in the most ordinary and extra-ordinary ways.Eden also feels called to expand the table, especially for those on the margins. Eden and her husband, Brad, have three adult children and 3 delightful grandchildren.
