Once a quarter we do a cafe instead of church, its a cool time to bring in a guest speaker and eat some yum food with people. Its cool to bring people who have never been to church before to get introduced to the body of believers. This past cafe church was a fully YOUTH run, operated, and themed. My kids were servers, did artwork, baked muffins, weaved flax flowers, performed the background music for the whole thing am I am SO proud of them!! Job well done. And I got to connect with some new people in the community so that is AWESOME! (Kinda the purpose of the cafes, so I am pumped).
