If youโve been to Open Mic, chances are youโve met Andrew. He shares his original music from the stage and his love for Lutherโs Table with people he meets. Recently, Andrew shared what this community has meant to him. We are grateful that he trusted us with his story and with the fullness of who he is:

Thank you, Andrew, for sharing your music, your story, and your love for Lutherโs Table. Andrew wrote, โI hope we can keep this place open for years to come.โ That is exactly why Friends of the Table matters.
Monthly giving helps sustain the everyday operations of Lutherโs Table and helps keep the doors open so this can continue to be a place where people gather, make music, find connection, share what they are carrying, access support, and experience belonging.
This month, weโre looking for 5 more monthly givers to bring our community to 40 Friends of the Table.
If Andrewโs story speaks to you, consider pulling up a chair and becoming one of those five.
