Global Exchange : Activist Network (#)
„In my organization that I work for on campus, a Christian Fellowship we are committed to only serve fair trade coffee. This past semester we spent time each week educating our group on what fair trade is and we sold some fair trade crafts and coffee from El Salvador before Christmas. We are encouraging students to fill out comment cards at local cafes, on campus and grocery stores asking for fair trade coffee options. I attend and work with CHANGE, the student organization and we are working on this campaign specifically on campus, which is taking a long time to get going.“

„Not much going on this semester as a result of 9/11 and state repression, etc... But we recently had a Fair Trade coffee house to highlight Fair Trade tea and coffee as well as information on the "war on terrorism" and all proceeds went to RAWA - Revolutionary Association of Women of Afghanistan.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide
„It became secularized, but the religious association remained. Some Christians at first were wont to brand coffee as "that blacke bitter invention of Satan," as opposed to good Christian wine, but in the sixteenth century Pope Clement VIII is said to have sampled coffee and given it his official blessing.“

„The UMCOR Coffee Project is a new way to help people in need while enjoying fellowship and an excellent cup of coffee. As Christians we can address a consumer dilemma by buying coffee that is fairly traded. United Methodist congregations that participate are helping small scale farmers in Latin America, Africa and Asia earn a fairer share of income, obtain access to credit and technical support, and gain a trading partner they can trust, a fair trade organization called Equal Exchange.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide
„In the case of Intelligentsia, a roaster in Chicago, the retail and wholesale best seller was the same, an interesting coffee called Black Cat Blend. And Christian Waskiewicz, roastmaster at Alpen Sierra in Lake Tahoe, California, cheated a little by sending what he considered his best coffee along with his company's best-selling coffee.“

View topic - Kicking around the idea....Christian coffeehouse - Coffee Forum
„Our first coffee house in Texas was bought from Christians who advertised themselves as a Christian coffee house. Not a Christian coffee house open to all walks of life, but a coffee house for Christians to meet and edify. This was not only a terrible business move (alot of non-Christians felt unwelcomed and overwhelmed by the Christian concerts, the literature and blatant pro-Christian artwork concerning Hell and it's members) but it didn't serve a purpose in it's community. Christians still didn't like it because the drinks were unbelievably terrible and the owners refused advice from those of us who knew espresso.“
