If any of you were at Catalyst last year, you know that we provided coffee for every attendee. Well that coffee was Rwandan coffee, and provided by Land of a Thousand Hills Coffee Co. I recently spent a few minutes at their headquarters in Roswell, GA, getting a tour of their offices, coffee shop, and brewing center, and also spending time hanging with Jonathan Golden, the founder, and Robert Crow, who is the relationship director and works with churches and organizations around the country. Since Catalyst last October, they have now partnered up with several other events, and also are now working with several hundred churches in providing coffee for congregations on Sunday morning. Check out this story from the local Fox TV station that recently aired.
The coffee is great, but what is even better is the story behind the coffee- how hundreds of Rwandans are now being paid fair wages for their coffee growing. Literally, communities in Rwanda are being changed because of us choosing to drink their coffee. So make sure and check out Land of a Thousand Hills and get involved- order coffee for your office, your church, your home, or next party. Coffee with a Story.
