For the past five weeks our team has been staying
on the fourth floor at Zion Cafe.
Emmi Khanthana is the owner and operator of the Zion Cafe.
She has an incredible but sad story.
Here is something I wrote for the back of her menu.
As you are sitting at Zion Cafe sipping a tasty cup of java, you might want to know that what you are drinking is much more than a cup of coffee.
As much as your beverage brings you warmth and joy while perhaps satisfying a craving, Zion cafe is bringing life and joy to a society craving for hope and a brighter future.
Have you ever felt hopelessly lost, with nowhere to turn?
This cafe is a story of how one person overcame hopelessness and now helps others who are stuck in the same place she once was.
This building is not only a coffee shop; it's a place filled with love, acceptance and hope for the hopeless. Here people will be shown a way out of their circumstances. English classes, Bible studies, and lessons in general life skills are offered to help them succeed. Full time staff and volunteers come from all around the world to be a part of making this dream a reality.
So, as you enjoy your drink at Zion Cafe, take a moment to think about those in hopeless places. You have helped them build hope for a better place. Thank you.

The Cafe is absolutely beautiful.
It recently transitioned buildings to be close to the red light district.
Emmi has a heart to help prostitutes build a different life for themselves.
She gets volunteers coming from all over the world to help with spreading
light into the darkness.
