Why so many of us eat together on Thursdays

Friends sharing a meal

Jesus spent a remarkable amount of time eating with people. Tax collectors, religious leaders, fishermen, outsiders — he pulled up a chair with all of them.

Jesus ate with almost everyone. So every Thursday, in apartments and community rooms across the city, small groups of us cook dinner together. Somebody brings jollof, somebody brings kimchi, and somebody always brings store-bought cookies. We read a passage, pray for each other’s families back home, and wash up.

“I moved here knowing nobody. Six months later there were eight people at my table who prayed for my mum in Lagos by name.”
