Re: Baxter was right Alicea! The Apocalypse Begins
I don’t get all this Starbucks biz
Don’t know ‘bout Latte, but I know what Coffee is
Whats Sumatra and what’s Espresso?
And what in the world is Capachinno?
In my day, you just asked for coffee,
Not Sidamo, Verona or even green tea
Guatamaula Antigua? Terraza Blend?
Man, what country am I in?
You coffee came hot and black,
And it was HOT or you sent it back!
Some might use cream, that’s not been whipped.
Sugar? Why…sugars for girls and whimps.
I paid nearly 8 bucks for two Starbucks one time,
And I gotta tell you, it wasn’t worth a dime.
So I’ll just stick with Maxwell House, or Nescafe
And You can keep your fancy blends of lattes!

Re: Baxter was right Alicea! The Apocalypse Begins
Our Pastor back in Oregon started noticing that many of the saints were showing up with Starbucks or the other coffee-shop coffees, and so he came up with a great idea.
He turned part of the foyer into a little bistro setting and put a coffee stand there. One of the women in our church was very experienced and so he put her to work. They charged about half of what Starbucks charges, so it saved the saints money. Gradually, word got around that the coffee was great.
Of course the coffee stand closed 10 minutes before church, so everyone had to get there early to get their yummy, yet cheap coffee. Visitors were offered a free cup, so many of them began staying after church to fellowship. All in all it worked out great.
The Coffee basically paid for itself! The saints started showing up early, and the visitors were blessed!

We do that now as well, it's a wonderful idea. We do offer more than coffee, such as juice and some pastries, bottled water.
