Kaffee Klatsch
“Love Bear” Program
kaffeeklatsch, n. from Kaffeeklatsch "coffee gossip": informal conversational gathering where coffee is served. Literally "coffee chat" (in German). This is the type of casual conversation, small talk and especially gossip enjoyed by housewives who meet in the afternoon for a cup of coffee.

Although the CTS Kaffee Klatsch has many similarities to the official definition, we have given this traditional gathering a new twist. The group meets on Tuesday mornings, 9:00 a.m., at a local coffee shop. And contrary to the definition, participants are not all of the fairer gender.
And what does a church-sponsored group gossip about? We gossip, discuss, pray and share about how we can grow spiritually in Jesus Christ. During the two years this group has been meeting, numerous texts and studies have been utilized to guide our discussions.
We are currently enjoying the book, Abraham, A Journey to the Heart of Three Faiths, by Bruce Feiler, published by Harper Perennial.
Previous studies have included:
You are invited to join us any Tuesday morning that finds you wanting a good cup of coffee, friends to share it with, or a little Gospel gossip! For more information contact C. J.
Our own opening prayer:
Heavenly Father,
be our guest.
Open our ears and heart
to your word.
Inspire and teach us.
Amen
