MYP Cafe'

I love the café! Community happens almost accidentally. With the addition of new outdoor furniture, some booths and some new games, it is even better this year at Kern…the official MYP Café. No matter how good the coffee is, or how great the surroundings, a café is only as good as its people! A healthy community is created by its people. The staff set the temperature, they make the environment fun and they make you feel special. That is what the MYP Café is all about.

Nobody engages people like Sarah Beth and Rachel Ann. Their ever present smiles and laughter set the environment’s temperature. Something tells you from the moment they greet you until you leave that this is a great place to be. Even when they make mistakes, they just laugh and start over again. Unconditional acceptance is what community is all about.

Not only is the café a warm and inviting place, its fun. Where else can you get enough caffeine to keep you up all night, play foosball until your hands hurt and listen to Emory’s new CD while laughing the whole time? The other great thing is that its fun for everyone from 2 to 102. The café offers a great respite from the meetings that are going on across the campus, while the game room is filled with fun and chaos. Fun is another trait of healthy community.

I hope to see you in the SEJMYP west office, the back booth at the Kern Café. Thankfully I remain:

Lost in Grace,
