Helping kids and parents flourish in God’s family.

For families with children 0-12
Did you think you had the answers about raising kids, only to realize you know nothing?
Ever question if you handled a tough conversation with your child the right way?
Have you ever ping-ponged back and forth a million times over how you want to address picky eating, sexuality, poor attitudes, technology, etc?
If not, give us your secrets! If so, Family RoundTable is for you!
Family RoundTable exists to help parents and kids (0-12) flourish in God’s family in two ways:
1. We host practical trainings for parents to process in a non-judgmental setting.
2. We help families connect to inter-generational relationships within The Table Church.
No one arrives as an “expert,” rather as peers doing the best we can to grow in faith alongside our kids.

FAQs
What does Family RoundTable do?
1. We gather monthly for a meal and training on a topic that helps parents/ caregivers disciple their family in some of the most vital and challenging areas today.
2. We are a connection point for kids and families to join an extended spiritual family. This can look like a Table Group, MomCo, or meeting with a couple of others on Zoom a couple of times a month. Different seasons will require different formats, so we like to stay flexible!
3. We join Jesus in spreading God’s love by offering practical opportunities for families to serve and hosting occasional invitation-friendly family meet-ups.
What happens on a RoundTable night?
Families start with a shared dinner at 5 PM and then do a fun activity with a Family Buddy. Then around 5:45, the kids go back to play while parents/caregivers hear a talk and have open discussion on that evening’s topic.
What is the commitment?
By registering for Family RoundTable, you are committing for Roundtable nights only. Families can register for the entire academic year, a semester, or drop in as scheduling allows (advanced RSVP required). Space for childcare will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.
We are also a church that champions circling up to go on the Jesus journey together–which is the way Jesus did it! These groups are where we become the church in its truest sense, because it’s the place where we can do the “love one another” thing. Talk to someone who has experienced this, and you’ll understand why it’s essential to them.
But we also try our best to accommodate dueling realities: On the one hand, prioritizing time with an extended spiritual family makes a HUGE difference in our lives and for our kids (like a Table Group or CORE Group). On the other hand, we live in a time where families are pulled in so many directions. Different options work for different families.
So if your whole family would like to find a spot to land, we’d love to help! If it works better to find mom and dad separate groups to be flexible for activities, that’s great too! Others might just need to Zoom with a couple of buddies after the kids are in bed. We can help with that, too!
But perhaps there is no realistic option for you in this season. Whatever the case, we encourage you to pray about what level of commitment you’d like to take and do whatever feels like a faith-filled step.
