On this mountain the Lord of hosts will provide for all peoples a Feast of rich food and choice wines -- juicy, rich food and pure, choice wines.
-- Isaiah 25:6

“I’m not being fed,” is a commonly heard complaint from someone who feels a sense of emptiness or hunger in their spiritual lives. Well, this menu will help you not only discover the food that satisfies the soul, but also to understand a step-by-step process to come to a more personal, spiritually nourishing relationship with the Lord Jesus.

As the expression goes, “You are what you eat.” After all, the very tissues of your body, the fuel that powers every cell, the hormones that keep you humming, all must ultimately be furnished by the foods you eat. The same applies to your soul. Whether you are a new Christian or a lifelong believer, you are responsible for continually feeding your soul with healthy food that helps you become holy, the best-version of-yourself.

Built on 2,000 years of experience in forming disciples of Christ, the Catholic Church offers an extensive menu selection to choose from. The basic elements to become a disciple are first Evangelization, then Discipleship, then Service, and all of this supported by Prayer & Fellowship (cf. Acts 2:42, 4:33).

And the best news of all—it’s free. It is a gift from God to you, but it’s not cheap. This great meal was already paid for at a very high cost by our Lord Jesus Christ out of His perfect love for You. So receive His love, by eating to your hearts content.


 
STEP 1 — Evangelization

Select an appetizer & drink. Experience one or two of the appetizers and your life will never be the same. Wash them down with a drink from the Holy Spirit, and you will understand why we call them GOOD NEWS worth telling others about. Be sure not to skip the appetizer as it will not only increase your appetite for the main course, but also dispose your soul to absorb all its nutrients.

STEP 2—Discipleship

Select the main entrée. The Catholic Church is where you can really and truly be fed a two course meal, taken from the one table of God’s Word and Christ’s Body (cf. Catechism #103). No other restaurant in town offers both the Bible and the real Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of the Lord Jesus in the Eucharist (cf. Jn 6:51). If you are not a Catholic, the RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) will help prepare you to receive the Eucharist. It is well worth the wait.

STEP 3—Community & Service

Select a side dish. Jesus not only calls people to Himself, but also forms them in community and sends them out in His service. In this menu, you will find a variety of ministries to choose from, in which to serve the Lord. It’s a perfect complement to the main entrée.

STEP 4—Prayer & Fellowship

Select a dessert. Feel free to order one of our succulent desserts, and you will be energized by the joy of living and praying in a Catholic faith community. Please note, that as good as our desserts are, it is not healthy to only eat desserts.


Now, you are ready to enjoy the Lord’s feast of rich food and choice wines.

Bon Appètit!
