The Inspiration
Here at MCM, we believe in the power of gathering people together. When we meet and listen to one another, an almost magical thing happens – the seeds of friendship are planted.
That’s the spirit that inspired “Gathering at Table” and this collection of recipes – to meet strangers from different backgrounds, to share memories and stories of food and the people who prepared it, to talk about the love and care that making and eating food can represent in our lives, confident that this gathering would enrich our lives.
And so it is; with great pleasure, we present to you just a few of the recipes and the stories that we heard from new friends as we gathered at table...

Everyone has a right to authentic community — MCM facilitates the journey from exclusion to community. We achieve our mission through a unique model of social action called SAGE. That stands for ‘Service’, ‘Advocacy’, ‘Gathering’ and ‘Eunoia’ (Greek word meaning friendship or positive thinking).
