We're so grateful for your help with coffee hour! It's a wonderful time for fellowship and connection.

Snacks:

Plan for 13-25 people.

Feel free to bring crowd-pleasing favorites or share a beloved family recipe for coffee cake, cookies, or anything else you'd like! Also, if a beloved family member is celebrating something, feel free to include that at the table.

Setup (Start at 9:15 AM):

• Coffee Preparation:
• Arrive around 9:15 AM.
• Remember, each pot of coffee takes approximately 7 minutes to brew.
• Before brewing coffee, run 1.5 pots of hot water through for the tea (make sure the coffee bin is clean so there is no residue coffee).
• Then, brew 1.5 pots of regular and 1.5 pots of decaf.
• Locate Supplies:
• Find the deacon; they'll show you where all supplies are stored.
• Plates for your snacks are in the kitchen.
• Cold items:
• Make 1/2 gallon of lemonade.
• 1/2-gallon Cold Water.
• Table Setup:
• The table is stored separately; the deacon will show you its location.
• Grab a tablecloth.
• Use the light brown Rubbermaid rolling cart (usually in the kitchen next to the stove) to transport everything.
• Cart Contents:
• From the closet, gather sugar, cream, tea bags, napkins, plates, stir sticks, paper cups, and plastic cups.
• Place these items on the rolling cart.
• Table Deployment:
• Immediately after communion, roll the cart out and set up the table.

Cleanup:

• Cleaning:
• Clean up all snack plates.
• Rinse the coffee/hot water dispensers and the lemonade vase.
• Return Supplies:
• Return any leftover sugar, cups, napkins, plates, etc., to the designated cabinet.
• Cart Return:
• Return the rolling cart to its original storage position.

Key Reminders:

Don't hesitate to ask for assistance if you have any questions.

Thank you again for your help in creating a welcoming and enjoyable coffee hour!
