Get Your Coffee Here!

jbar-coffee-000001Do you love coffee, just not at the Starbucks price? Support your coffee habit and our student ministry by drinking a FLAVIA coffee on Sunday mornings.

The student ministry has begun a new fundraiser by offering individual coffees and teas. We can make lattes, cappuccinos, and a variety of teas. We'll even mix your coffee with a Milky Way caramel blend. Regular coffees and teas are $1, while specialty drinks are only $2.

All proceeds benefit our teens and help make student ministry activities affordable for everyone. Thank you for your support!
