The Largest Table is one of St. John’s most significant
missions of outreach and service. 

Downtown Columbus is a rich combination of people – office workers, business executives, local residents, and our homeless or marginally housed neighbors. Every Wednesday, our committed group of volunteers feed 200 “in need” individuals and families a hot, home-cooked meal, in community with other guests from downtown – ​and we’ve been doing this faithfully for more than 10 years.

Our Wednesday volunteers are a diverse group – including life long members of St. John’s, active retirees, local church youth groups, school groups, as well as people from other businesses and organizations. Some people come from different faith traditions to serve at The Largest Table, and here at St. John’s, we work with – not against – people from other traditions. Why? Because God is still speaking, and we are still listening!

Our greatest need? Volunteers!
Each year we serve more guests, so we’ve created multiple teams of volunteers each week to manage this growing ministry. Our volunteers come together starting on Tuesday, to begin meal preparations, and opportunities continue on Wednesday for additional meal prep,
setup, service and clean up. 
 
Are you or your group/company/organization interested in volunteering? Here’s how you can help:

• Attend The Largest Table and spend time with our guests
• Donate funds to the church to provide the meals and supplies

  alongside our experienced volunteers
