Dinner Reflection Questions and Groups:
Today you visited the Sister’s kitchen of 1650 and learned about what their life was life as the congregation was founded. Tonight, you are sitting around a table, sharing with your fellow pilgrims, in essence – breaking bread together. Reflecting on your experience in the Kitchen today, in conjunction with the work you do at your local ministry, what connections might you make? (Their life was difficult, with many competing priorities (needs) – just like yours. Resources to meet the needs of the people were scarce, yet they were creative in finding ways to serve. How might their determination inspire you?) How might your leadership inspire others?
The first pilgrim listed in each group is the group facilitator for the evening.
