Our Friends’ Cafe & Site of Church-Start Burned Down

Early Tuesday morning, the historic building in New Hartford, CT where our friends Glenn and Maja’s cafe was burned down and was destroyed. They met at the cafe, Farm River Cafe, where Glenn was the owner-operator, and they were later married there. They are also people we have been investing in spiritually, and they have been gathering friends on Saturdays with the goal of starting a church at the cafe. For them, this feels like a spiritual attack against what was happening there and their hopes to reach the small town.

There is still no known cause, and the building has been demolished for safety reasons.

Please pray for Glenn and Maja. Pray also for the other business owners, apartment residents, and the owner of the building. Pray for the firemen injured battling the fire. Pray for the town of New Hartford. Pray for the group that has been gathering in the cafe.
