Coffee Cart

This is not the first time I have mentioned the coffee cart in my blog, I talk about it so often because I love the concept and the outcome of our weekly operations. The coffee cart is a low budget fundraising tool that not only allows the youth group to raise funds but it gives members of the church congregation a chance to hang out together and enjoy making new friends in our beautiful court yard. There is one thing that keeps the coffee cart going each week; it’s not money, customers, or a great youth pastor. It is one of the youth workers Chantal. Chantal plans all week long, she searches for new drink recipes and finds out how to lower our cost. On Sunday morning she is the first one to arrive and the last one to leave. Chantal does all of this work with a smile on her face. Thanks Chantal. All great fundraisers start with great leaders. This Sunday buy a drink and a carwash ticket from the coffee cart, to help send a student to summer camp, and make sure to tell Chantal, ‘great job!’

Accept,
