Cafe Reconcile Update

Our first of two teams just returned from Center City New Orleans where they are helping to build a dormitory for a Drug Addiction facility based in Living Witness Church. Down the street is Cafe Reconcile that our crew had the benefit of sitting in on a staff meeting to learn more of what this business/ministry is all about. Read our New Orleans team blog here.

Here's a recent article about Craig Cuccia and Cafe Reconcile. And another one with even more detail about their various programs.

Why care about a small restaurant in the armpit of New Orleans? Well, I love the vision that Craig Cuccia has for restoring both a neighborhood and lives wholistically. I want Cedarbrook to help in their vision and then bring that vision back to Menomonie to do some similar things.

So, let's keep our eye on what Craig is doing down there and become his students! I'd love to see a Cafe Reconcile North!
