What is it? Dinners for 8 is a simple way to build community by sharing a meal together. Small groups of eight adults gather once a month for conversation, laughter, and the chance to get to know one another better.

Groups are reshuffled periodically, making it a great way to meet new people and grow your circle of connection within the church.

No program, no agenda - just good food and good company.

When & Where? We'll be starting in May 2026. Group members take turns hosting in their homes or meeting at local restaurants. Individual groups determine the schedule that works best for them.

Who is it for? Dinners for 8 is open to adults of all ages - singles and couples alike. Whether you're new to UMCE or have been here for years, it's a great way to build relationships and feel more connected.
