    A coffee klatch is a 50's term for gals who would meet regularly to discuss (or gossip) about goings on in the neighborhood while their husbands were at work.

    Informal, no purpose, just have a donut and coffee and shoot-the-breeze. The concept is returning in our "networking" society, only usually in the evening (after work) for the same informal, directionless chit-chat.

    I used that term to differentiate this type of kitchen table fellowship from a real home Bible study that is developing into a local church. Those "church plant" meetings are very different.

    Now that we all know what a coffee klatch is, I thought I (the starter of the topic) would let ya'll know my (final?) thoughts on the matter. Both sides have very good points, in my opinion, and I can easily see both perspectives. If partaken with reverence, while gathered together for the purpose of glorifying God and encouraging one another in the faith, I see nothing wrong with observing a symbol of Christ's sacrifice with a small group of believers.

    I believe that the principle behind Romans 14 applies to this issue. I greatly appreciate all of the input you have given.
