United Church invites Canadians to the table across the country
To mark its 100th anniversary on June 10, 2025, The United Church of Canada launched 100 Tables, a national initiative inviting its communities of faith across the country to transform a picnic table into a site of welcoming that reflects the church’s century-long commitment to live out God's call to love and serve.
Throughout that summer, over 115 gatherings were hosted nationwide as visible signs of a promise: to meet people where they are, both spiritually and physically. We’re excited that many communities are bringing 100 Tables to life again throughout 2026!
Rooted in faith and shaped by the unique needs of their communities, these gatherings go beyond simply sharing food or information. They offer interactive, meaningful experiences that address local concerns while celebrating what it means to belong—to truly have A Place at the Table.
Join us as we celebrate The United Church of Canada as a space to explore faith and community, and cast a bold vision for our shared future. With each table placed outside, communities of faith are extending the United Church’s history of love, justice, and inclusion, and carrying that spirit into our next 100 years.
