For example, tortillas (Honduras), naan (India), banana bread (Jamaica), etc.<\/p>\n<p>Following worship, we also invite you to join the Care of Parish Commission for a <strong>special<\/strong> <strong>coffee hour<\/strong>, as we extend God&#8217;s table into the world with treats from around the globe. Please consider bringing a baked good or cheese of your choosing from a country that is meaningful to you; perhaps a place where you have lived, visited or a land from which your ancestors originated.<\/p>\n<p>We invite those bringing bread to divide it into two portions; one to adorn the worship table during the communion liturgy, and the other half to share during our extended coffee hour so folks can take their time to sample the breads.
