Lord's Supper Church: First Sunday Service!

Church around a table — worship, Scripture & Communion woven into a shared Sunday meal at Merchant's Grill. Donations welcome but not reqd.

Church, but around a table.

The Lord's Supper is a new Gospel church in Rochester, NY, and every Sunday we gather at Merchant's Grill to eat, sing, pray, and take Communion — together, in the same room, over the same meal.

There's no stage. No sanctuary. Just chairs pulled up to a table.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Our service follows the shape of a Seder — worship woven course by course through a shared meal instead of set apart from it:

🕯️ Welcome & candle-lighting

🎵 Opening song

📖 Scripture & prayer

🍽️ A shared meal, with readings tied to each course

✝️ A short, Christ-centered teaching

🍞 The Lord's Supper — bread and cup, taken in remembrance of Christ

🎵 Closing song & benediction

WHO IT'S FOR

Believers in Christ and those exploring faith are welcome to participate fully, including Communion. If you're not there yet, you're still welcome at the table — come eat, watch, and see what it's about. We'll always be clear about which parts of the evening are for believers, so no one's caught off guard.

Merchant's Grill was chosen on purpose: it's humble, family-run, and never fine dining. A good meal should never be the barrier standing between you and a seat at this table.

RSVP 3 days in advance is absolutely required. ONLY 50 SPOTS AVAILABLE. NO WALK UPS/SAME-DAY BOOKING. YOU CAN ALSO BOOK FOR LATER DATES.

Short video interview required for all first time guests!
