Anbalagan giving an appreciation certificate
 We want to take this opportunity to share how the past month had been. We had a great month. We had an amazing time celebrating our cafe's first birthday by decorating our cafe with balloons, giving out free sugar cookies, pie lucky draws and 10% discount whole day . We wanted to acknowledge our loyal customers, so we picked a few and made an appreciation certificates for them, we gave it to them on our first birthday party. it made them feel special. After our busy day , we spent time  thanking God for being so faithful and helping us throughout the whole year. We spent time worshiping and  reflecting on all God's promises over this cafe.

our staff Christmas party

We got to host a Christmas party for our staffs. It was so fun. We played secret Santa, heads up and balloon stomp. We had a great time talking,eating amazing food, laughing and exchanging gifts. At the end of it all, We got to share about the real reason why  we celebrate Christmas with our people. it is not about gifts, food or anything else but Jesus and how he valued people and his greatest sacrifice for us to have eternal life.



Christmas sugar cookies!
Our best selling item of this month was our Christmas sugar cookies, they were so popular among our customers. We loved decorating over 500 cookies. Everybody loved them and thought they were perfect snack for Christmas parties. We also introduced a new seasonal drink for this month it's called peppermint mocha. it was fun experimenting and finally creating our own peppermint syrup.

prema and manju our bakers!
We want to share about what God’s been talking to us as a team. He showed venilla psalms 20 for the cafe. The two things that stuck out to us was one that we should remember God in our of victories and our hard times. We always remember God in our hard times but most of time we don't in our  victories.  And two in verse 7 it talks about when we  have confidence in God we can win any battles. The closing verse talks about praying for our leaders so we spend time praying for the people above us. We want to start this year by celebrating God at all times and spend more time praying for our leaders.
