September is both Hunger Action Month and Su***de Prevention Month.

Both hold very special places in our hearts, and although those may seem like two completely different topics, they both draw attention to basic human needs.
the need for nourishment.
the need for safety.
the need for hope.
the need for encouragement.
the need to feel loved.

We recognize that emotional needs are just as important as physical ones. Whether someone is facing food insecurity, financial stress, loneliness, grief, or anxiety, our cafe is a place to be supported and cared for.

Great food is what brings people through our doors. But it’s the intentional interactions happening around our tables every day that create the greater good- strengthening our community as differences fade, relationships grow, and a sense of belonging is found.

All month long, we’ll be focused on raising awareness to the needs around us and learning how we can all better care for our neighbors.

Together, we can do more than combat hunger. We can FEED COMMUNITY.

Our monthly Table Talks are opportunities to gather in community for open, approachable conversations about relevant topics, led by experts who can offer helpful information and answer your questions.

In September, we’re talking about Medicare

Join us for Making Sense of 2027 Medicare changes, a casual conversation around the table with Tyrone Carr, DEO and President of Tyrone Carr Associates. We’ll explore common questions and topics including:

- How Part D premiums may change.
- Medigap vs Medicare Advantage plans
- Miss information about choosing doctors
- Penalties associated with Part D and Part B.
- HSA while on Medicare
- What to consider if working and elegible for Medicare

Whether you’re approaching Medicare, already enrolled, or helping a loved one navigate their options, this conversation is designed to help you better understand your options.

Wednesday, September 9 | 9-10am
The Ivy Table Cafe Glass Room
FREE to attend | Seating is limited

Yesterday, Phil and Maryanne Munroe, owners of The Spice & Tea Exchange of Brighton stopped by The Ivy Table to present us with a generous check from the Taste of Brighton!

During that event last month, a portion of every beverage sold at their tent was donated to support our mission. Thank you to everyone who purchased an iced tea or lemonade from them. Your beverage helped make this gift possible!

We are especially grateful to Phil and Maryanne for their generosity, partnership, and commitment to supporting our community. Thank you for choosing to help us feed community!

Leading with Prayer

Behind everything we do is a faithful team of people committed to praying for our ministry. They pray for our café, our staff and volunteers, the meals we serve, our work abroad, and every guest who walks through our doors.

On our café counter, we have a prayer box that receives written requests from café guests nearly every day. Each request is immediately shared with our prayer team by email and covered in prayer.

Once a month, on the third Tuesday, our prayer team gathers to pray in person as a group—and this month’s gathering is tomorrow!

If prayer is one of your gifts, you’d like to strengthen your prayer life, or you simply want to spend time alongside some incredible prayer warriors, we would love for you to join us.

Can’t make it in person but still want to be part of this ministry? Reach out! We would be happy to add you to our prayer team email list.
