"In Community" Dinners

Introducing . . . “In Community” Our church Fellowship and Mission Commissions—in partnership with Bound Brook’s Downtown Business Coordinator, Veronique Cordier—are pleased to introduce “In Community”. What’s “In Community”? A new opportunity for members and friends of our church to eat together, have fun together and just get to know each other better—while helping local restaurant owners whose businesses have been impacted by Bound Brook’s recurring floods. Here’s how it works: 1) Once a month from April through June, members of our congregation, their friends and/or anyone else who's interested will meet at our church on a Saturday evening at 6:15. Childcare will be provided at the church for those who say they need it, at no additional cost. We can arrange transportation for those who need it. 2) Participants won't know where or with whom they will be having dinner until that night.  All they'll know is they're eating somewhere in downtown Bound Brook. (We’ll do our best to accommodate any special dietary needs—food allergies, vegetarian meals, etc.)   3) We'll go to one (or more) local restaurants—specifically those that have been impacted by downtown Bound Brook's floods, and could really use the customers. The restaurant owners will benefit in having customers they might not otherwise have—that night, and potentially after that (if people choose to go their again on their own).  The diners will benefit in trying a restaurant they might not otherwise have gone to and (hopefully) having a good meal with great people.         Our church benefits in having members get to know each other a little better—and maybe by inviting others who are not members of our congregation to see what we're like. Sound like fun? The first “In Community” event will be on Saturday evening, April 14 (the first Saturday after Easter) starting at 6:15 PM at our church. IMPORTANT: Payment of $25 per person must be made no later than Easter Sunday, April 8. Refunds cannot be guaranteed.
