Living Word Banquet Hall
A place where Saints and their families come together
after worship for fellowship... Just as the 1st century
Church desired to break bread and fellowship with one
another, we too at Living Word Church covet the close-knit
family bonds that we share with other Saints through
fellowship. In the Word of God, fellowship and food
often go hand-in-hand. In Acts 20:7, the Scripture states,
"And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples
came together to break bread..." Again, this example
is seen in Acts 2:46, where it states, "And they, continuing
daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread
from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness
and singleness of heart..." As we see that this was
a common practice in the early Church, we too, have
made it a high priority to have fellowship with one
another. Here are a few ways that the Church accomplishes
this:
Friday Evening Fellowship
On Friday evenings, after being spiritually fed from
the Word of God, brethren and visitors can look forward
to delicious pizza, cheese nachos, cookies, ice cream,
coffee, and more. The Church kitchen crew, headed by
Bro. Dominick Bellucci, faithfully prepares these refreshments
for families to enjoy while spending time together in
fellowship.
Wedding Receptions
Over the years, the Lord has used the food service ministry,
made up of volunteers from the congregation, to be a
blessing to those married within the Church. Newlyweds
who could not otherwise afford the expense have the
opportunity to have beautifully catered wedding receptions
at the Church's Banquet Hall in a Godly atmosphere.
The brethren have accommodated receptions where only
punch, coffee, and cake were served; and also staged
multi-course wedding meals with full waiter/waitress
service. Many helpers are the children of brethren who
used these services in past years for their own wedding
receptions.
Sunday Morning Breakfasts
Every Sunday morning, Bro. Frank Babiarz and his team
of helpers whip up an exquisite breakfast for the Saints
before the Church service begins. Although the banquet
hall provides enough room to accommodate many hungry
brethren at once, Bro. Frank never has a problem accommodating
one's desire for a hearty meal. The Saints enjoy
everything from muffins and hash browns to sausage,
pancakes, and 'make-it-as-you-want-it' omelets.
This is especially a really nice feature for those Saints
who drop off their children to Sunday School. Now, instead
of waiting around or going back home, they have the
chance to start off their Sunday morning enjoying some
good fellowship (and some good food) with the brethren.
