You’ve had a solid run, Josie Greer as our baker at Mayfly Coffee. You’ve made some killer scones, expanded our gluten free offerings all the while with a work ethic that is unparalleled. When most High School Juniors and Seniors were still sleeping you were up countless early mornings going up on the mountain to bake your…

When she was in 8th grade she stepped behind our cash register at Cadence Coffee on 7th and started taking orders. She learned the skills she needed to become an excellent barista and equally excellent manager at not one but two locations. When I asked her to take the manager role at Mayfly she took the role…

I saw your picture today. You were in my “memories.” You won’t remember us – but we can never forget you. You came into our life as unexpectedly as you left. I’ll never forget the night at church when your mom walked in from the streets and asked me to pray for you in her…

Coffee Together: Fun
My wife and I sat one evening listening to a married couple talk about some of the lessons they had learned over the 24 years of their marriage. I took copious notes, and a lot of what they said challenged me in such profound ways. But it was the first “lesson” they shared that has…

Help Pull The Sled.
We have an oft used phrase around RiverChurch – “Go Be The Church.” Its our reminder that “Church” isn’t some place we go to, rather it is something that we embody in our everyday lives. A specific family in our city is in desperate need for the Church to Be the Church. This mom,…

Coffee Together: Serve
Mother Theresa was asked one time “How did God call you to serve the poor?” Her answer . . . “I was not called to serve the poor, rather I was called to serve Jesus and He led me here.” If anyone knows me, they know I’m a big dreamer. Sometimes I can get carried…

Coffee Together: Shoe String
Some of my most favorite people in the world are the volunteers at Cadence who support our paid staff by helping with some of the day to day tasks, but more importantly building relationships with our customers. Sarah is one of our Wednesday volunteers, she and her husband Ray are great at connecting with customers…
