Free Friday Night Dinner and Bible Talk in Glebe, Sydney (18+)
About this Event
FREE DINNER | EVERY FRIDAY 6:30 PM | GLEBE | ADULTS 18+
Looking for something to do on a Friday night that isn't scrolling alone? Come to Glebe. Dinner is on us, the Bible talk is a conversation and not a lecture, and the night finishes with games and a lot of laughing.
FIRST TIME? HERE IS WHAT TO EXPECT
Arrive any time from 6:30 PM, there is no wrong time to walk in, and we will point you to a seat. Dinner is free and included. The Bible talk is a conversation, not a lecture, and you are welcome to just listen. You do not need any church background, and nobody will ask you to join anything.
A GOOD FIT IF YOU ARE
An adult new to Sydney, a uni student or young professional, curious about the Bible or faith, or just looking for a free dinner and real conversation instead of another night alone.
This is not a formal church service. Think of it as a relaxed Friday evening where you can share a good meal, meet real people, and talk about life's big questions in a down-to-earth way.
WHEN AND WHERE
Every Friday, 6:30 PM to 9:30 PM
6 Darghan Street, Glebe NSW 2037. Free parking at the venue.
Cost: free, dinner included.

HOW THE NIGHT RUNS
6:30 PM, Dinner and connection. Dinner is provided for everyone. Sharing food around a table is one of the best ways to break the ice, so come as you are, grab a plate and meet other people who are also looking for a warm community and deeper conversation.
7:30 PM, Bible talk and discussion. We open the Bible together and read through the verses on a topic that applies to everyday life, such as purpose, relationships, hope and challenges. It is interactive and open to questions, and it's meant to start real conversations instead of one-way lectures.
8:30 PM, Games and making friends. Something different each week. Sometimes it's a lively game of Uno, other times a group challenge or another favourite. The point is to relax, laugh and build friendships in a casual setting.
WHAT THE ATMOSPHERE IS LIKE
There is no pressure, no routine rituals, and no expectation that you fit a particular mould. You don't need to ask what kind of church this is, because we're not about labels or categories. We're people enjoying each other's company and looking at timeless truths in a modern setting.
WHO CAN COME
Anyone aged 18 or over who wants friendship, wants to explore faith, or simply wants a good Friday night without spending money on expensive dinners or crowded venues. If you're completely new to the Bible, curious about spirituality, or already walking in faith, you'll feel welcome.
WHY COME ON A FRIDAY NIGHT
Community beats another Friday night scrolling alone.
Dinner is on us, so all you need to bring is yourself.
You'll meet people who are genuine and fun.
You'll probably leave encouraged, maybe with a fresh perspective on life.
It's a weekly anchor point at the end of your work week. Instead of finishing the week drained, you can start your weekend connected and refreshed.

The discussion is interactive and often centred on a key topic, with space for everyone to share their thoughts and questions. It is not a lecture but a group conversation that encourages honest dialogue, practical insight and a deeper understanding of how the Bible relates to everyday life.

The focus is on having a good time together, building friendships, and enjoying an informal space where everyone feels welcome to join in.
