Building a community together
FEAST for Young Adults
What is FEAST?
FEAST is a community of young adults and young professionals, (ranging in age from their mid 20s to their mid 40s), that meet regularly both to build community and to dig into the more difficult aspects of our faith lives. We gather for fellowship events like brunch and happy hour, as well as regular dinner events in which we take on a guided discussion of a difficult topic facing Christians today. In addition to delicious food, these meetings are focused on creating meaningful and personal interactions among individuals seeking more connection and engagement in a faith-interested atmosphere.
Past and planned topics include:
-
-
- How do progressive Christians conceive of Creationism?
- What role should the Bible have in American politics?
- Christians and belief in ghosts (a special Halloween event)
- What does the bible say about sexuality?
- How should Christians approach the death penalty?
-
These aren’t easy questions and, in fact, our goal isn’t to provide clean or easy answers. Rather, we want you to come and engage in these tough conversations with people you might not encounter or engage with in your day-to-day lives but who, like you, want to share a meal and learn about someone else’s journey. Join us to FEAST on the Spirit, on Scripture, on good food, and on great conversation. Questions? For more information, contact Pastor Melissa Spence at melissa@fumcaustin.org.
