All Are Welcome at the Table

The Word of God sets before us a vision of a great feast where all are welcomed—a world in which every person’s dignity is honored, basic needs are met, differences are embraced, and justice, peace, and reconciliation are actively pursued. This vision challenges us to examine who is excluded from our communities and why, and to reflect honestly on how race, prejudice, and lived experience have shaped our attitudes.

Wisdom invites us to move beyond awareness to conversion of heart, for God’s feast is not complete until those we exclude are the very ones we learn to welcome.
