Do you enjoy eating out at new places? Would you like to support independently owned and operated St. Louis City restaurants? How about spending time getting to know other members of Union Communion? If you answered "yes" to any or all of these questions please join Restoring the Core! Each month we will share a meal together at an independently owned St. Louis restaurant. We will focus on restaurants that have opened in the last two years and are still cultivating a following.

Restoring the Core usually takes place the first Thursday of each month at 7 pm. Our next outing will be on Thursday, December 4 at Mia Rosa at 4501 Manchester Rd, St. Louis, MO 63110. Be there at 7:00 pm.


To sign up for the evening, please contact Carol by e-mail: restoringthecore@gmail.com by Tuesday, December 2, 2008.
