Heartland’s New Worshiping Communities

The Open Table KC

At the Open Table, we believe in a community where everyone belongs, a city where all have the power to pursue their dreams and ambitions, and a people who are committed to each other’s liberation, until all are at the table together. At The Open Table KC, we create space for hospitality, conversation, peace, and reconciliation, and we root our theology in contemplation and liberation. Our gatherings always include food, music and conversation. All are welcome, any time.

Center Field

Center Field is a sports ministry dedicated to the physical and spiritual lives of the children in our community. Grown out of South Broadland Presbyterian Church which sits on an acre of land in the heart of our Waldo neighborhood, t-ball and softball have been enjoyed here for years. This new community joins our established sports-ministry by providing training for parents to become coaches, on and off the field, and for children to be teammates to all of God’s creation. Community food and music events are ongoing. All are welcome to join us, as we seek together to worship God through play.

Elder’s Circle

The Elder’s Circle is a new community growing at Cherith Brook Catholic Worker House in the northeast neighborhood of Kansas City. With a long history of serving the under-resourced of our city, Cherith Brook’s leaders have begun to discern a greater call to the spiritual lives of their community. Discernment continues around bi-weekly breakfasts, music, and prayer. Stay tuned for what God is doing here!

Warriors of Light

Warriors of Light is a collective of diverse women from across the Kansas City area, committed to praising Jesus, our greatest love, first. This community aspires to bring its fellowship of women closer to the Divine and aids them by providing a set-apart time and sacred space to grow a deeper relationship with God. We gather in the mornings as a community for one hour and participate in individual worship through music, art, and self-guided meditation, inviting the Holy Spirit in to resonate throughout the day. More opportunities for group worship and community creation are coming soon!

How to Find

Sessions are Tuesdays and Fridays at 6 a.m.
Coffee is always brewing. Drop-ins are encouraged. Check out the website for “what to expect!”
*Please note, this community is for those who identify as women only.
