<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">This month has been a really calm
one even though we had a lot going on. We felt like God’s been constantly
taking care of our needs. We lost a few of our good employees who have stayed
with us for more than a year. It was very hard losing them. It was kind of
discouraging too. As usual God’s been so
faithful in bringing in more employees. The cafe has been so busy this past month.
We were able to see lot more customers come to our cafe. It’s been a huge
blessing. On our New Year’s Eve service our pastor prophesied Isaiah 9:3 over
the whole church. The scripture says ‘you have enlarged the nation and
increased their joy; they rejoice before you as people rejoice at the harvest. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">We
feel like God’s been faithful in bringing more business to us. Our business has
been growing and we believe that God is going to keep growing our business. We strongly believe that this season is going
to a season of harvest and we are going to enjoy God’s goodness over us. One
other thing that God has been teaching us this month is to be more positive and
see the best in people and love them for who they are. We started talking to
our employees and help them to also start seeing the best in people. It’s so
easy for us to judge and assume the worst in people. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Cambria, serif;">Personally God’s been reminding
me of this verse over and over again this month i.e.; delight yourself in the
Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart. It’s been so encouraging
to me. I just have to commit my ways to
the Lord and trust him and let him do his job and he’ll give me my desires of
my heart. Sometimes I focus so much on planning my life and trying to figure
out everything not realizing that God’s taking care of me. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

We have some new employees
working with us at daily bean. We have been training them and teaching them how we do things at the cafe. It’s been fun
hanging out with them and sharing about our vision and why we started daily bean. It was also so nice listening to their lives too.We hope to make an
impact in their lives too. <o:p></o:p><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For Anbalagan, from the New Year, God has been teaching him about a season of harvest. He feels that the season of "sowing" is done in his business, and he will begin to see the fruits soon. The verse Psalm 128:2 says: "When you eat the labor of your hands: you shall be happy." Even though it's been tough loosing some of our long-term employees, I am trusting on this verse that the Lord has promised me. I truly believe this year will be a year of harvest for the Daily Bean, and we will see the fruit of our hard work. </span></div>

We were able to take a few days off for Christmas to celebrate with our families. This was Shobha's and my first Christmas together after being married. We celebrated with both of our families, and we were very loved. God's been so gracious to us and His love has continually covered us. Both Shobha and I were able to sit back to take some time and see how God has been walking us through this past year and just be grateful for his hands over our lives.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This month has been an awesome month where God's been teaching Venilla about the life of Moses. There are three things I learned from his life. First, Moses was a man of faith. Second, he was humble, and third, he loved God and his people. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Moses was a man who had a strong faith, and he centred his life on God's promises. Even though he doubted himself so many times, he eventually overcame the doubts. He listened to God and followed him. Moses loved his people even though they fought a lot and questioned Moses on so many things. He was still with them till the end. He rescued them from the Egyptians. He trusted God and his process. In the same way, God has been teaching me to trust Him and His process. He wants us to be faithful to Him and to trust that whatever happens, He will turn it into good.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This month for Venilla, God has been teaching her from the book of Psalm 32:8-9 it says; “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go. I will guide you with my eye. Do not be like the horse or like the mule, which have no understanding, which must be harnessed with bit and bridle, else they will not come near you”. Through this scripture God’s been teaching her that he doesn’t want to guide her from a distance but rather draw closer to him, allowing him to direct her from a place of intimacy. He doesn't want us to be like the horses that don't like to be controlled but free and unproductive. He wants us to build a close connection with him so he can easily direct us in the way he wants us to go. He wants her to always fix her eyes on him and stay close to him. When we have that intimacy with Jesus, it's so easy because he will guide and direct our hearts to his.</span></div>

It has been 23 months since we opened The Daily Bean. What an
adventurous journey it has been! We had lots of ups and down but the best thing
about it was we had God’s grace with us and the cafe. This month God has been
teaching anbalagan personally and the team from the Colossians 3:23 and 24 it
says whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord,
not for human masters. Since you know that you will receive an inheritance from
the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. This verse has been
speaking to us. It helps us realise how important it is to know that we work
for Christ and not a man and how we need to give our 100% no matter what. We also used this same scripture to teach our
employees about the importance of working hard, to give 100% in whatever they
do and also spoke about how rewarding it is when we hard work and it pleases God.</div>

This month has been very busy. We finally feel like the
new daily bean is settling in since we had a lot of maintenance works in the last two
months. It has been 3 months since we moved from the old place. We are so
thankful for God’s presence over this place. This month we started focusing on
growing our business through various promotions. We started with our children’s
day, thanksgiving promotions. We also started a new executive lunch offers to
help us increase our sales on the weekdays. It’s been really nice brainstorming
ideas to help grow our business. </div>

We did something that we never did before in the cafe. It was
our sister’s wedding instead of closing our shop we decided to let one of our employees
run the store for a day. It was a really hard decision but it turned out to be
a good one. It helped us to trust our employee and allow them to rise up from their place. It was good for us and the staffs. They did a really good job.</div>

We started building a better relationship with our customers. One of our customers actually asked us
to pray for her, she has been really struggling to find a job. We prayed for
her and a week later she found a really nice job that was so flexible and they
paid her really well. She described to us that it was exactly the job that she
has been praying for. It’s crazy how God used us to pray for her and minister
to her. We want to be able to minister to our customers and God chooses this
lady and bought her to the daily bean. This is exactly how we want God to use us. We
just don’t want to be a cafe but a place where people can come share their
problems and we pray for them. We believe God is going to bring more people to
us so we can minister to them.</div>

my stronghold. I call upon the Lord who is worthy to be praised, and I am saved
from my enemies. This has been a promise over her life. Sometimes we forget
that we can call on to God and he will answer us. We feel more comfortable
seeking people’s help instead of God’s. God just reminded her that He is her
everything.</div>

God has been teaching Sridhar from 1 peter 3:8 it says
finally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be
compassionate and humble. This month has been a little challenging month for
him. This month he actually decided to take a break from work and visit Sweden with
his wife and her family. He applied for the visa. He was pretty excited about
the whole trip. But unfortunately the visa didn’t go through and it was pretty
devastating for him. He was very disappointing but out of this whole situation, God made their relationship stronger. He has a better relationship with his
brothers in law. He’s been faithful over his life. </div>

For Sridhar, this month has been a wonderful one. God has been teaching Sridhar to work immediately and not to tolerate things or situations that accrue in his day to day life. He's been learning that when he starts to tolerate things, then he procrastinates, and when this happens, he starts to pile up junk. It becomes a routine for most of us to let the Spirit of Procrastination rest with us.</span></div>

Sridhar has had a mix of both good and bad things happen this past month. Starting with the good, he has had so many people celebrate him this past month, both family and workplace mates. He was celebrated and was very blessed to see so much love from everyone in his circle. This is going to be a very special year for him and in everything that he does. </span></div>

The hard part of this month was that the Daily Bean had to get some major electrical work done, which cost us more than we had expected. All the major repairs are completed now, and we hope that we won't have to close our store again for any electrical situation. The whole time Sridhar felt God continually comforting with His promise that He is with us and that everything is going to be just fine.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">This month has been a gracious month for Venilla. God has been teaching her about Psalm 103 where it says His love for us is so great, and He doesn't count our sins against us. God has been constantly reminding Venilla of His unfailing love.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Roman 8:39 has been another reminder for Venilla this month. It talks about how there is nothing that will ever separate us from the love of God. There are times when Venilla questions God's love, but it's so beautiful to know that it's unconditional.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">For Anbalagan, this month has been a blessed month. Jessi and Anbalagan have been able to move to a new house. The move was difficult and took a lot of time, but it was worth it. God knows the best time to bless his children. He's always a faithful Father. This month has been a tough month for us in Daily Bean as there were so many electrical issues, and it was hard to know how to get it fixed correctly. Due to this problem, we had many equipment failures, and it was disappointing for us to have this problem after being re-open for a short time. We learned a good lesson which will help us in the future. Each season in the Daily Bean has taught us a lesson. </span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">We also had to make a difficult decision regarding three of our employees. After giving them many chances, we had to let them go. The monthly staff meeting was good and hard because we said goodbye to the three employees, but we also had a chance to celebrate Salomi's birthday. This staff meeting was important because we had more than six employees join us for the first time. It was helpful to introduce everybody officially and develop a connection with the team. </span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Personally, this month God has been teaching Anbalagan to "Be still, and know that He is God" (Ps. 46:10).

This month God has been showing me something very simple
through one of our Employees. His Name is Epi Thang a young guy about 21 years
old. Loves football, very hard worker and the best thing that I love about him
is how he always has a big smile on his face and enjoys life each day at its
own speed. God really spoke to me when we had so much going on, setting up our
new store and I just got married and my wife lost her job, the one she was in
for the last 4 and half years. In short, everything seemed to be upside down
for me and I found it hard to see life and God’s hand in both of our lives.</div>

it is not going to give us peace or get us to the place we want to be in.
Instead, it's choosing not to let worry or fear overpower today’s joy that we
get to enjoy freedom in Jesus. It’s hard to be in that place but when we
deliberately choose to fix our eyes on Him in the midst of chaos and
uncertainty, all of a sudden I feel that overwhelming sense of peace that
surpasses all understanding, realising that this is how we are called to live
our lives.</div>

For Venilla, this month God's been teaching her how to
endure difficult times. Here’s a quote from a book she’s reading now. It says,
“ the sanctuary of His embrace is where God reveals purpose, which in turn
empowers us to endure hardship with joy, for we know He is working it all
together for good.” This was a huge encouragement for her.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Most of the time we
focus on the hard times when God urges us to trust in his unfailing love for
us, which is always going to be bigger than any storm we will ever face. It’s
amazing how that simple truth changed my perspective from trembling at the
sight of my storm to riding its waves with peace knowing that my God is with me
through it all. He has not failed me yet and I choose to believe that he’s not
about to start now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

For Anbalagan, It’s definitely been a season where God is
teaching him about submitting to authorities as well as walking through these
difficult moments with God’s grace which He promised will be sufficient. We
haven't seen the fruit of our hardships and the sacrifice that we’ve made
towards the cafe yet, but God is asking us to believe and trust him. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Galatians 6:9, “let us not be weary in doing well,
for at the proper time we will reap a harvest. It's been a hard month and we
clearly don't know how to process it all, but I believe that those who wait on
the Lord will be renew their strength. I am holding on to that promise because I
know He will never change.</div>

This month has been an amazing month for the daily bean team . If you guys don’t know... We have some great news! One, We have finally moved out of the old place. Two ,we have moved into a much better and bigger place. We are almost done with setting up the new place and it looks amazing. Thanks to Tabby aunty and her friends from America who helped us with setting up the cafe. They were a huge blessing to us. There’s no words to describe how amazing our God is. He was so faithful in providing us the money to build and set up this cafe. We are so grateful to the people who gave money towards building this new incredible place.Thank you so much for listening to God and choosing to support us. We are excited to announce that our grand opening will be on the 15th of August. The cafe is three times bigger than the previous one and it is a huge blessing for us. The kitchen is my personal favourite. It’s huge and spacious. I will definitely let you all know how the grand opening day goes on our next blog.</span></span></div>

Greeting's from Venilla, Anbalagan and Sridhar.<br />

This past month was wonderful, a fresh start for the three of us. We have had a crazy experience<br />
working with super small kitchen space, despite all the craziness, God is teaching us to have better<br />
relationship with our employees and learn to work better as one team.<br />

Its been so fun and very helpful to have Eliyah working with us for a few months. He has been helping us with our new build-out and at our present store.<br />
<br />
The month has been filled with God's faithfulness. The construction of the new place is going well.<br />

Jesus provides for us at the right time for all the work. It's been a journey filled with his faithfulness<br />
for the three us, as he is shaping us and guiding us in this new journey as well. Jessica and Anbalagan<br />
got to celebrate their first wedding anniversary in Thailand. They got an opportunity to help their friend's ministry.<br />
<br />
They got to share their testimony as well as play football with kids. The whole trip was so refreshing as Anbalagan got to explore a new culture. This was his first international trip. God's been so faithful in providing and taking care of them over this past year.<br />

This month God has been teaching Venilla about how the three of us need to focus on being rooted<br />
deep in his word. He spoke to her through the tree that is planted right in front of our new place.<br />
The tree looked so beautiful. It looked so green and new. God was reminding her that the deep the<br />
three of us grow in Christ the more fruits we would be able to bear through him.<br />
<br />
Psalms chapter 1:2- 3 talks about how when we meditate on his word and walk in his ways we will prosper. He compares a person that is very committed to him and walks in his ways to a tree that is planted near the streams that produce fruits and whose leaf does not wither and whatever he does prosper. It was such an encouragement to me that God used our own tree to speak life into us. We believe that God is in this and will help us succeed.<br />

For me( Sridhar) I had an incredible month. I finally got married on the 14th of June. It was so<br />
beautiful. Both our families celebrated with us on our wedding day. I was able to connect with<br />
Shobha's family as well and get to know them better. Shobha and I are slowly starting to set up our<br />
house and learning what it is to be married. I am very grateful for all your prayers and blessing over<br />
me and Shobha as we were blessed beyond our imaginations.<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Hello! We hope that you and your family are doing well. We are thankful for your time in hearing our stories from this month and dedicating yourselves to praying for each of us individually, as a team, and for our business. It is so amazing to look back to where we have started, to reflect at where we are now, and to look ahead to the blessings of the future and see how God is continually shaping, molding, and teaching us to be throughout it all. It's a blessing to see the direction that the Daily Bean is growing in!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">We all go through dry and rough seasons. This month, God's been teaching Venilla about the secret of endurance. God wants her to continuously seek Him even when things get messed up or go wrong. It's easy to endure in the good times. It's when the hard times hit that our endurance is proven. When Jesus went through the process of preparing himself before he was going to be crucified, He first prayed. This was how Jesus endured His pain: through praying. It reminded Venilla of how important it is for her to do the same when she goes through difficult situations. God has been so faithful to her in helping her go after Him no matter what the situation is. Venilla has started talking and praying with a few of her friends, helping them to grow deeper in Jesus. At the end of the day, He is so worth it. </span><br />

It has been really challenging to balance both work and personal life as he is getting ready to walk into a new season. God has been really faithful to Sridhar. He provided him with the wisdom and strength he needed to make the right decisions and get through this month. It's been a very emotional month as well for him personally because of all the craziness that’s been going on with the current cafe space. Sridhar is very blessed and excited for this upcoming season that God has for him. Please continue to uphold Sridhar and Shobha in your prayers as they learn to be married and balance </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">work life as well.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;">It's been a challenging month for me (Anbalagan), as we have had to deal with our present landlord. We had to be strong and rooted to carry on for the next two months, as he has shortened our kitchen. We have to work with a new kitchen on the other side of the building, but by God's grace we can overcome the situation, even though we didn't want to give him the place that he required. I have learned through this situation to be patient and know that God has His own perfect plan for the Daily Bean in his own time. We were able to find a perfect new location for our cafe, and we even signed the new agreement with the new land within a month! We also have started the construction for the new place. We are so excited to see what else God has in store for us and our cafe.</span> </span></div>

<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">We are learning so much about becoming better
leaders and running the cafe. We are able to constantly mentor our staffs and
encourage them to grow deeper in Jesus. We see a lot of growth in our team. One
of our constant prayer requests has been for unity among the three of us and the
team. We believe that God’s been so faithful in uniting us and helping us work
as a team. </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><span style="color: white;">This month has been a little more challenging for
us. God is been teaching us as a team to be more rooted in him even when a storm
comes we will be still standing strong. Sometimes when things don’t happen the
way you want them to, you get so frustrated and blame others for your problems.
This month we faced a situation where we were so frustrated with each other and
blame each other for a mistake, we didn’t expect it to happen but it did. We
got so defensive and questioned God. During this problem, we were able to see
God’s goodness and his faithfulness over the cafe. We spent a lot of time praying
over the cafe and asking God to heal our hearts from being so bitter. We are
still learning to become better owners of this cafe. God’s been so gracious
with us and moulding us to become a better version of us.</span></span><span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><span style="color: white;">We are still looking for a bigger space for our
cafe. We have some options available to us but not sure exactly what God wants
us to choose. We ask you to pray that God will show us clearly the place that
he wants us to start the cafe in. We also want to completely trust God in this
decision. God has been using Isaiah 45:2-3 as we pray for the building. Isaiah
45:2-3 talks about how God will go before us and he will make a way. He will
clear the way and destroy anything that opposes us. He will make the path
straight. We believe that God is making a new way for us.</span></span><span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

God’s been teaching him to completely believe in him and depend on him.
Sometimes when we work so hard to get something and don’t get it we feel like
we don’t deserve to get it. We feel pity for ourselves but God’s been faithful
to Anbalagan and helped him to draw closer to him and trust him in the process.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">This month has been an amazing month for me; I took
a week off from work. I went to Thailand and got to have a really nice quality
time with my mom. The food in Thailand is amazing. Their street food is the
best thing about Thailand. The sticky rice with mango on it and coconut milk
poured over are so heavenly. I got to pamper myself with an hour awesome foot
massage. It felt so great. I also got a chance to met my mentor and spend time
loving her baby. It’s awesome what they are doing in Thailand. They adapted to
their culture and learned their language so they can easily share the gospel to
the local people. </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

the Thai people loved and respected their king, it made me love my king Jesus
even more. How awesome is our king than theirs? he deserves all our love and devotion. I had a great time in Thailand. </span></span></div>

This past month God has helped Sridhar to walk into a new
season. We all have that moment where we need to stop and hit that reset
button, and focus on the important things of life. He felt he really needed to
turn his focus on God and on past events or insecurities. God has been so
patient with him in helping him make a fresh start . During this process of
confessing and healing he was able to walk in forgiveness and let go of past
events that has been bothering him for a really long time. He felt more
peaceful and happier. Psalms 121 has been a very encouraging passage that helped
him constantly remind him that there is a living God that cares for the
littlest things and thinks it’s so important to help people like him. The
father knows exactly what his kids need and gives it to them. This month God provided
him with a new house where he and shobha will be living after they get married.
Right now he stays there, decorating the house. This has been an amazing month
for him.<br />

This month God has been teaching anbalagan to trust God and
hold on to his promises. For the past few months he has been dealing with fear
and worrying about what people think about him. This month he has been really
working on these insecurities and asking abba to help him overcome them. This month
has been an extra awesome month was because he started investing more of his
time studying and learning about coffee. It’s been really nice having people
who are in the coffee business for more than ten years share about their
experiences with him. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He spends time
learning the different kinds of roasting coffee beans, various flavours. He has
been working a lot on perfecting our house blend coffee beans. His interest in
coffee has grown drastically over the past months. Can’t wait for him to become
a coffee expert.</div>

Search me, O God and know my heart, test me and know my anxious
thoughts. This has been our prayer for this month. Have you ever wondered why
sometimes you are in a bad mood and don’t know why? Maybe it’s because we may
be struggling with some kind of strongholds, we may overlook it or ignore it. This
past month as a team we decided to ask God to search our hearts and reveal to
us if we had any hidden strongholds. We prayed and asked God to help us get
free from them. Some of the struggles that we face as a team were self-doubt and
fear of failing. God’s been so faithful in helping us by constantly reminding
us these two verses. Philippians 1:6, he who began good work in you
will carry on to completion and the other one is from psalms 121:1 my help
comes from the Lord maker of heaven and earth.</div>

decorating a lot of heart sugar cookies and decorating valentine’s cupcakes. Our
team is growing we are so happy to have two more staffs added. It was a fun
process training them. We love running this Cafe. We started realizing that a
good way for us to know more about running our business is to watch videos/ shows and articles about other entrepreneurs and how they run their business. We started
gathering twice a month to watch these videos and discuss about it. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s been great learning process. </div>

We are so excited to let you know we found a bigger place for

about how we could decorate the place, how we could covert some of the space to
a conference room or birthday party place. It’s so fun talking about the new
place and new ideas that we can implement. God's been so faithful in leading us. He is truly a good good father.<br />

This month has been a great month for me. I am reading a
devotional book called secrets of the secret place. It’s an amazing book that
really helps you grow deeper in Jesus. The chapter that God has been using to
teach me this month was “the secret of feeling attractive to God”. We often
dress up and want to be so appealing to people. We want to look so beautiful and attractive. This
has been one of my struggles lately. One of the things that really stood out to
me from this chapter was, “when you gain ownership of the fact that God is smiling on you, that
he desires your company, and that he longs to be intimate with you, then the
truth of that reality starts to touch your emotional chemistry, and you
actually begin to feel attractive to God”. This helped me break my insecurities and find my true identity in Jesus. so I started spending some time helping my friend break this same stronghold. </div>

<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Isaiah 55:9, it says;
As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts. God’s been using this verse to teach Sridhar
that God has everything planned for us. We just need to follow him and let him
lead us. It’s very hard when we like planning our lives and want to figure out
everything by ourselves. It’s been a difficult process for Sridhar to let go of
his agenda and let God lead him. For the past month, he has been mentoring one
of our younger brothers. He loves spending time praying with him and just listening
to him talk about his life. </div>

God’s been so gracious over the cafe. We are so excited to
let you know we started selling coffee beans on Amazon. It was a great idea to reach more customers that live outside bangalore and love our coffee beans. Another highlight of this month was we had few scenes of a kannada movie filmed in our cafe, this was awesome. It was so cool to see how they shot the scenes.<br />

Thank you so much for
praying for God’s presence over our cafe. One of customer was just sharing his
experience with us. He was having a really hard time figuring out what God
wanted him to do next. Not kidding but a stranger just went over to him and
prophesied over him and told him exactly what he's been praying about. It was so encouraging to hear that testimony. So thank you for
praying. Prayers really do get answered. </div>

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.<br />

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.<br />
<br />
<br />
Thank you for taking time to read our blog. We appreciate your support and prayers. Have a blessed new year. Send us your prayer request so we can spend time praying for you and hearing God for you. We love that we get to continue doing missions with our business.<br />
<br />
Prayer points:<br />
Please pray for the three of us as we become better business leaders.<br />
Please pray for more wisdom, strength and Grace as we start this new year and to be able to stand firm with the Lord as well.<br />
Please pray that God would bring in employees who are willing to be with us for a long term.<br />
Pray that God would be the center of everything we do.<br />

As I am writing this blog I’m just so overwhelmed. I am reminded of this verse that God gave us when we started this cafe, it’s from Zechariah 4:10. It says; Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin.... what a great year it has been. We are so grateful for God’s favour over this cafe. Honestly speaking it wasn’t easy for us to start this on our own, we have had lots of ups and downs but through it, all God was with us. He’s been so faithful and provided us with the strength that we needed. We are so thankful to God for giving us excellent mentors to guide us and help us through our hard times.<br />

Since last December God’s shown himself to be our teacher. He’s also shown himself to be a leader since he set that example, we are able to be leaders like him. It’s really encouraging to see our employees try to follow in our footsteps in our work ethics, responsibilities and our relationship with each other. We can’t wait to see what God’s going to show him as in 2019.</div>

Hope you are doing well. We’ve had a crazy yet a wonderful month. Our sales have gone up and we have been getting bigger orders. Our best selling products this month were the pumpkin pie, pumpkin spiced latte and the pumpkin cupcake. We introduced a new drink this month, it's called peppermint mocha. It's been a big hit amongst the customers.<br />

One of the hardest things in business is losing good employees. This month we lost two of our employees. It was really fun to have them working with us. We loved spending time with them. Sridhar spent time mentoring them and guiding them to grow deeper in Jesus.<br />

To celebrate our big day, we are having free pies lucky draws, 10% discounts, free Christmas sugar cookies and acknowledging our loyal customers. We are so excited and can’t wait to let you know how our celebration went in our next blog. We are expecting it to be a big celebration.<br />

We are so grateful for the employees that stuck with us from the beginning. We see a lot of growth in them. We are so amazed at how God used some of them to teach us also. During our staff meetings, we ask one of our employees to share what God’s been teaching them in that month.<br />

This month Manju shared about how God gives talents according to our abilities and how we need to use it to our fullest. This was really encouraging to us as we can apply this to our employees and help them work accordingly. We love our team and are proud to see how much they have grown this past month. <br />

How are y’all doing? We at the daily bean are doing awesome. Thank you for your continuous support and love. We had an amazing month. We went to the Golden triangle, visited the Taj Mahal, Jaipur and Pushkar. It was beautiful. It was such a blessing to be with the whole family. We were celebrating the 20<sup>th</sup> anniversary of our home. God has been so faithful in leading the home for 20 beautiful and adventurous years. We got to spend time with our brothers and sisters that live away from home. It was an amazing trip. We were also refreshed and are able to work better since being back after a week of break from the business.</div>

We are excited for the season that’s ahead of us. It’s crazy that it’s going to be almost a year since we started daily bean. It looks like we just started a few days ago. What a blessing to go through this adventurous year with God leading us day by day. Thank you for praying for us. Prayer makes a huge impact on our business. We feel so blessed to be covered by prayers. When we compare our first few months to the present months, we see a ton of growth in our business. We are so happy to be doing what we love to do. We have hired a few more members to our team, so happy that we get to be a part of their lives.<br />

We are so thankful to God for constantly taking care of us and giving us the right wisdom to help our business move forward. We have introduced our very special Pumpkin spiced latte and our very own pumpkin spiced cupcakes. This has been a great hit among our customers.

We are super proud of Sakthivel, one of our best employees who left recently. He started working in a gym. His passion is to become a professional gym trainer. He’s doing a great job and loves what he is doing. We also loved having Retina and Kekhrie with us. They were working with us as part-time employees. They study in an animation school. It was so fun working with them because they always asked a lot of interesting questions about Jesus. It was a great time for us to share our testimony. Ritika is from a Hindu family. It was so interesting to see how curious she was about Jesus.

We had a fun/good time answering those questions even though some questions were hard to answer. We are so happy that she’s curious and we got to share Jesus with her.

<span style="line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;">This past month has been a very refreshing month. We attended the sons and daughters retreat which was by far one of the best things that happened this year. It was a time where we didn’t have to worry about the cafe and just focus on Jesus. We were able to focus on our identities in Jesus rather than our identities in the cafe which was a real struggle for the three of us. We are so happy that we got free from that. It was incredible to hear from our brothers, sisters and friends (who attended the retreat) about their work in the mission fields. It was encouraging to listen to their hearts, their joy and struggles. We had an amazing time praying and prophesying over each other. <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

It was a blessing to hear from Manju as she shared about what God’s had been teaching her this month. We started letting our employees take turn and share about what God’s been teaching them. We want to give them an opportunity to share and bless the others. She spoke from Psalms 27:14. It says wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. It was really encouraging because one of our employees was struggling with this and she was asking God to speak to her and after Manju spoke it was like a confirmation of her prayers. </span></div>

Hope you are all doing well. We want to take this opportunity to share how the past month went. In our Business aspect, we’ve been doing really well, we had many new customers. We’ve been able to expand our business through Swiggy and even though its monsoon we’ve been able to have good sales through our delivery partnering company.<br />

We had a really good time at our monthly staff meeting. We let one of our employees cook the meal, he did an amazing job. He made beef biryani and curry. Sridhar led our meeting and took a small devotion for us. He spoke about how sometimes we are so used to the regular routine of our lives that we hate when sudden changes occur. He challenged us to accept those seasonal changes and trust God without a doubt. We spent more time just connecting with our employees, having fun talks and laughing. It was fun to see our employees being themselves rather than being professionals.</div>

This month has been filled with celebrations in which The Daily Bean has been able to be a part of. We were able to supply over 200 cupcakes as the wedding treats, and everyone loved them. This month one of our brothers from our loving family got married.<br />

This month we also had to say goodbye to one of our employees as he got an offer from a cooperate company, He was with us for the past 6 months and has given his best.

Greetings from Venilla, Anbalagan and Sridhar.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This month has been very challenging, yet a month of grace. It’s hard when God teaches about humility. Not everyone wants/is willing to accept it. We’ve been praying as a team for wisdom because we needed it so bad and it says, ask for wisdom and it will be given to you, so we prayed continuously for wisdom. And this is what God showed us.<br />

It’s from Proverbs 11:2, it says when pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom. That’s when it hit us, we prayed so hard for God’s wisdom not realising there might be another problem that was hindering that wisdom. We had to pray and get our hearts right. We felt so good after that. We are so glad that God showed that and helped us deal with it.<br />

This month we had to let go of one of our employees due to certain reasons. It was hard for us because this was our first time firing someone. Trust us it wasn’t easy but a great learning experience. It was really discouraging because we put a lot of time training him and he was one of our best employees, but we had to do it. Thank God for his grace during that time.<br />

We had some major work that needs to be done in the kitchen area. The kitchen gets really hot especially now that it is summer, so we had to install exhaust fans. We got that installed and now it’s much cooler.<br />

We are so excited to let you know we tied up with swiggy (delivery service). Since our seating area is small we decided to go for the delivery service option, hopefully, this will help us expand our business. We are so grateful for our mentors who help us brainstorm different creative ideas to solve our problems and encourage us to keep going. We love doing what we are doing.<br />

We have had a super busy month since we had to close our cafe for 3 days due to some maintenance work. Since the summer has started, our kitchen has been super hot, and it was hard to work in this condition. We were able to get some exhaust fans installed to help keep our kitchen cooler.<br />

During the 3 day break, we had to upgrade our menu with the tax, and we also were able to add some new items to our menu. So far, we have seen both positive and negative feedbacks from our customers. We were also able to meet with two different people who have lots of experience in this business world, hear some tips from them, and pick up lot of ideas and help from them, which was a great eye opener for the three of us. We realized we still have so many ways we need to improve as young business owners.<br />

We’ve also been learning a lot about the joys and struggles of employee management. On the last Tuesday of the month, we have a team meeting to talk about the business and job performance. It’s a great opportunity for us to give a small message to speak life into our employees and also to recognize positive job performance. We also enjoy sharing a meal together in the evening, which helps build community and we can learn more about them outside of work. This last meeting, we noticed that one employee in particular showed a lot of improvement in attitude, timeliness, and leadership in the kitchen. We wanted to celebrate and recognize this improvement, so we gave him a gift voucher for the cafe. We hope this will motivate and encourage others to have this same attitude and positivity in the days ahead.<br />

It has been a busy month at the daily bean. We are very excited to let you know that we had our first staff meeting. We had a great time of fellowship, games, prayer, worship and sharing the vision of Daily bean. It was so awesome to get to know each employee, their personalities and have deep conversations with each one over these past few months. We spent time praying over each employee. We want to be able to disciple them and help them grow deeper in Jesus.<br />

It's so encouraging to see a ton of new customers and our regular customers come in. We are now able to spend time talking to our customers and getting to know them. This is how we pictured our cafe would be like. We are still working on reaching out to the college kids. We really love what we are doing and so happy that we are doing what God called us to do.</div>

God's been teaching us as a team to let him lead us as we run this business instead of us trying to figure out everything. Matthew 6:25-34 has been a constant reminder for all the three of us. We get so worried about our lives and miss out a lot of good stuff. We are learning to embrace each moment as it comes. We spend time talking to each other, sharing our burdens and praying for each other. We have become best friends.</div>

Prayer points:</div>

2. Pray for wisdom as we listen and help mentor our employees<br />
3 Pray for Gods presence to always rest in our store<br />
4. Pray for good health and strength in our bodies.<br />
5. Pray for His protection over our cafe.<br />
