Table Project

Hunter Street Table Project

What is the Hunter Street Table?
It is an online Hunter Street-specific social network application aimed at strengthening faith-sustaining relationships among our church members. It is for all adult (18 and over) Hunter Street members.

What can I do on the Hunter Street Table?
Browse a people directory to bring together names of faces of Hunter Street members.

Join a small group, such as your Sunday School class, and use the small group tools to make communication easier and a little more fun.
Share your prayer requests with the church and respond to the prayer requests of others.
Much more. See the video below for an online demonstration.

I’m already on Facebook—why would I want to use this?
Read this article from the team at Tableproject, explaining why a church-specific social network is compelling, whether or not you are already a Facebook user.

How do I join the Hunter Street Table?
We have provided a password in the Worship Guide or Street Talk publications. Use this password when prompted when you visit hunterstreet.tableproject.org.

Who is allowed to join the Hunter Street Table?
Only active Hunter Street members age 18 and over are invited.

Is the Hunter Street Table safe?
The Table allows us to extend our existing physical community at Hunter Street into an online presence; the people you see on the Hunter Street Table are the same people who are physically present with us here during our worship services and other church activities. Therefore, all the same common sense rules about relating to others face to face at Hunter Street apply on the Table as well.

Everyone on the Table has the ability to flag any content that is in some way inappropriate, and when this happens the content immediately is taken down until it can be reviewed. Due to our Child Protection Policy only adults age 18 and over are invited to join our Table.

Can I keep my personal information private?

Yes. By default, your address and phone numbers are hidden from the rest of the church except for administrators.

People you mark as your friends can see your phone number but not your address.

If you want, you can configure your profile to reveal more to friends or other church members. And even if you keep your address or contact information hidden, you are still able to communicate and fully participate at the Bethlehem Table.

Who built this, and why?
The Hunter Street Table was designed and built specifically for churches by Tableproject, a nonprofit Christian ministry located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. We are excited about the vision they have for serving the church with the Table, which they are making available to churches completely free of charge. One of their tag lines calls the Table "a free gift to slay anonymity, champion prayer, and squash apathy."

What are social networks, and why are they important?
A social network is a group of people who are connected by relationships, beliefs, or interests. Popular websites and web-based applications such as Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, and YouTube, are a few examples of online social networks and social media tools.

Hunter Street has Twitter and Facebook accounts that are used to reach our followers quickly with news and information of interest to our church family.
