As a main part of Pathways (the church plant that I am involved in) we are excited about opening up a 'missional cafe'. I have removed the name of the cafe because we want the first 'google' spot to be for the official website and right now it is for my blog. The main focus behind this cafe is to connect with people primarily the ages of 13-30 (this doesn't mean we are leaving older people out, we are simply decorating and having the feel of the place focused on attracting the younger generation). We will be offering fair trade products (simply put, we are buying the coffee and other products from overseas at a price that will enable them to make a profit). Most other places who offer fair trade coffee (ie. Starbucks) have only one blend that is fair trade and the rest they pay peanuts for. As well as being a coffee house where we will interact and meet new people, it will also be our place of worship. In October, we will be returning to weekly or bi-weekly worship services where all the cell groups come together in corporate worship. Currently we meet every 6-8 weeks at some random location. This will be great to be able to go to the Cafe.
Anyway, please pray that all goes well with getting the Coffee House up and running and that we will be successful at it.
Cheers

Sorry everyone, it's found in Numbers 22, not 11. I was reading Numbers 11 the other day and that's where I got mixed up.
