Four simple ways you can help
We really can’t do this without you.
We’re hoping you’ll pray for us, we hope you’ll get in touch to find out about being a volunteer too. You can also help us while you shop online, at no extra cost to you! Lastly, money would make a huge difference.
We became a registered charity in 2021 and we’ve received some grants from generous foundations, but we’re growing fast - and so are our costs. Even a fiver - or a fiver a month - would be great. But prayers always!

Prayer
Please pray for the ministry of the Open Table Network - we believe the Spirit is moving in the extraordinary growth we’ve seen since 2015.
It’s not our own kingdom we are building though, so we invite you to use this prayer card to join us in praying for God’s will in our communities.
Our prayer is that we will give
Glory to God, whose power, working in us, can do infinitely more than we can ask or imagine.
- Ephesians 3:20
If you would like copies of the Open Table Network prayer card, please contact us.

Volunteering
If you value the work of the Open Table Network and have gifts, talents, and time to spare, why not contact us to explore how you might help.
Opportunities include:
supporting the hospitality and worship of our local communities
helping us to raise awareness at community events e.g. Pride
supporting us to manage our social media to reach more people
fundraising to help our network to grow
becoming a trustee to be part of our team that helps us to plan for our future together.
Could this be you? Let us know!
