Our Vision~ To see women connect, encourage and inspire one another through Praise and Coffee groups meeting in every state and across the world! Our Mission~ Connecting Women~ * Encouraging women to start a Praise and Coffee group in their community. * By the ‘Praise and Coffee Connections’ on our Facebook page. * Through sharing our pictures and stories of women and the power of connection in our (this) quarterly magazine. * By welcoming all Praise and Coffee group leaders into our private Facebook group and giving each woman a place to belong and be loved. Encouraging Growth~ * The groups offer women a safe and non-judgmental environment to share the journey of life which creates an atmosphere for growth. * The menu options allow us to connect with women on similar journeys and grow through relationships enriched with commonality. * The springboard compels us to dig into God’s Word and let it be life to us in our current circumstances. Inspiring Change~ * Inspire means to “breathe in” and we believe that connecting with women through Praise and Coffee groups helps women “breathe in” fresh hope by hearing each other’s stories. * We’re changed when we dare to step out beyond our comfort levels and be our authentic self to those around us, no more masks. * Inspiring change by unpacking our faith with women on similar journey’s and choosing not to shrink back but to live our lives boldly as God intended. 8
