JUDGING + PRIZES

Or just come hungry and be part of the fun. Sample the entries, cheer on your favorites, and enjoy a great night of food and fellowship.

WHO WILL TAKE HOME THE GLORY?

Bring your chili. Bring your appetite. Bring your competitive spirit!

How about one night when you don’t have to plan or prepare dinner? Just come, enjoy a good meal, and have a relaxing conversation with someone else from our church – someone you know, or maybe someone you’ve been meaning to meet.

Most Connections Dinners will be on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of the month at 6 p.m., with a few holiday scheduling exceptions. Put these dates on your calendar for this fall and come join us!

October 14 – Chili Cookoff (get your recipes ready to compete!)
October 28 – Enchilada Casserole
November 11 – Baked Potato Bar
December 13 (Sunday) – Potluck Soup and Carols

Everyone is welcome, and bring a friend! There is no cost, and you don’t need to bring anything. Just show up, have dinner, enjoy some conversation, and stay as long as you’d like. We especially hope these dinners can give parents a break from planning and preparing dinner for the family.

If you’d like to help make these dinners happen, we’ll be recruiting volunteers —these community dinners take many hands!

We can usually accommodate a variety of special dietary needs, including vegetarian, vegan, no soy, and lactose-free options – as long as we know at least three days in advance.

Our regulars tell us that Connections Dinners are one of their favorite events.

The food is delicious, and the company will be even better if you come too!
