Table Conversations

A dinner conversation series for leaders & practitioners exploring faith, culture, and community in the Pacific Northwest You are a leader, or you are married to one. You solve problems, make decisions, and tend to the hearts of others. You shepherd, inspire, and encourage. You take care of so many people and oversee so many projects, and sometimes—even if you deeply love what you do—it can feel overwhelming and lonely. Welcome to Table Conversations. This is an evening designed to feed your body and your soul alongside people who simply “get it.” • This event is hosted by the Center for Transforming Engagement and led by Kate Walters • Registration: To register for this event, please go to our website: https://transformingengagement.org/church-leadership-training/fall-2026-table-conversation-november/ or https://transformingengagement.org/catalog/ • Price: $40 (includes your meal) You are invited to join an intimate group of 6-8 folks for a nourishing meal. This is a space for emotional and spiritual encouragement, support, and cultivating trusted relationships with other leaders. To help us truly slow down, reflect, and connect, we will put our phones away and take a gentle break from discussing work or family. You may or may not know the people around the table, but you are invited to come with a curious mind and an open heart, ready to move past small talk into life-giving conversation. November 16 | Theme: Believing When you are constantly pouring out faith and hope for others, where do you take your own shifting theology or quiet questions? This evening is dedicated to believing—holding space for the evolution of our faith, exploring what grounds us now, and finding mutual encouragement for the journey ahead.
