Open Table Connection

(Luther House)

The Open Table Connection, formerly Luther house campus ministry, is an ecumenical collaboration of open and affirming churches and faith communities committed to listening to, learning from, and supporting the spiritual journeys of young adults at the University of New Mexico and Central New Mexico Community College. Under the leadership of our member and UCC pastor Rev. Rhonda Newby-Torres, The Open Table Connection has worked hard to become a leading ecumenical presence for young adults in New Mexico.

A diverse group of people marching in a pride parade, holding a banner that says "God the original they/them" and waving rainbow flags and umbrellas under a bright blue sky.

Activities include:

  • weekly gatherings of a shared meal followed by study, prayer, worship, and/or spiritual practice; and

  • as a Reconciling in Christ ministry of the ELCA (similar to the Open and Affirming ministry of the UCC), the Open Table Connection welcomes people of all sexual orientations and gender identities to participate in the sacramental and general life of our community of faith.
