(check out the clip from the interview.)

Election Day Communion was an effort started by two Mennonite pastors and an Episcopal layperson in 2012. to try to bring people together on Election Day.  The hope was after people voted, they would come and gather at the communion table. Subsequent events took place in 2016 and 2020.  But the Facebook Page for Election Day Communion was not updated for 2024. After January 6 and the rise of Christian Nationalism, is there still a place for this event?  

Andrew Camp, says yes and joins me to say why. Camp is both a former pastor and a former sous chef interested in the connection between food and faith and you can see those in connections in action on his podcast The Biggest Table.
