About Open Table Parish

Pull Up a Chair.

Open Table Parish is a network of rural United Methodist churches and fresh expressions of faith across Jackson, Bay, Washington and Calhoun Counties in the Florida Panhandle.

We believe church is more than a building. It happens around communion tables, dinner tables, coffee tables, campfires, and neighborhood tables—where people know one another, serve together, and grow in Christ.

By sharing pastors, resources, volunteers, and vision, our churches are able to dream bigger together than any one congregation could alone.

Whether you've followed Jesus for decades or you're simply curious about faith, there's always a place waiting for you at the table.

Why Open Table Parish?

What Makes Open Table Different?

Shared Mission
Seven United Methodist congregations sharing pastors, leaders, volunteers, and resources so every church can thrive while remaining rooted in its own community.

Fresh Expressions
Church doesn't only happen on Sunday mornings. It happens around dinner tables, in recovery groups, coffee shops, homes, Bible studies, and wherever people gather in the name of Christ.

Deep Roots. New Growth.
Our churches have served these communities for generations. Together we're honoring that history while creating new ways for people of every age to encounter Jesus.
