Grace & Greens

What is Grace & Greens?

Grace & Greens is a free community meal held every Wednesday at 12 pm at Okra Abbey, serving 40-70 people in the Pigeon Town community. As the very first program started at Okra Abbey, and one of our flagship programs, Grace & Greens has been taking place every Wednesday for over 10 years, rain or shine, serving well over 20,000 meals in that time. Grace & Greens is an opportunity for all our neighbors to gather together around a meal and grow deeper in relationship. We begin every meal with a welcome, a blessing, neighborhood announcements and a discussion prompt which sets the tone for the wide welcome we extend to one another during the meal and anytime we gather together at the Abbey. 

Okra Abbey welcomes sponsorship of the weekly Grace and Greens meal! If you would like to prepare a meal, drop off ingredients, or sponsor the cost of the meal, please contact okraabbey@gmail.com.
