Kind coffee shop employees comfort grieving customer at drive-thru window

by Chloe Bryan

A Washington woman captured a moment of true kindness Saturday in an unlikely scenario — her morning coffee run.

Barbara Danner was waiting in the drive-thru line at Dutch Bros. when she noticed three employees comforting the woman in front of her.

She later learned that the woman’s husband had passed away the day before, and that the three employees were saying a prayer.

Pierce Dunn, 19, one of the employees, told The Oregonian that he just wanted the woman to feel supported in her time of need.

“She was crying,” he said. “I shed a few tears. We’ve cried since as well. When something that real happens, it hits close to home.”

Another one of the employees, Evan Freeman, explained that he prayed with the woman despite not being religious himself — and it all came down to empathy.

“She could have said she wanted an apple, and I would have gone and planted a tree and grown her an apple. It just happened to be religion that she wanted,” he said.

And Dunn and Freeman aren’t the only ones showing their support. Since Danner posted a photo of the moment to Facebook, it’s garnered over 93,000 shares and over 319,000 reactions.

“Prayers for the young family, and you know where to stop for coffee,” Danner wrote.

Editor’s note:

Business owners should be praying and looking for employees/workers like these.

“I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.” 1 Timothy 2:8

You gotta love stories like this that Chloe Bryan reported.

These several young people sprang to the occasion to bless the precious woman in need who had fallen upon hard times.

God is so good.

It would seem apparent that the lady in need got her coffee for free that day but she also received something much greater – God’s love through His body and the prayer they lifted up to the Father to bless this hurting woman. The only thing those Christian people could give her to bring healing to her heart was prayer and they knew that. Only the LORD can heal the broken in heart and this is why Jesus came. And, He delights in the prayers of His saints

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised …” Luke 4:18

There are times when physical things like food, water, shelter, clothing, are exactly what the needed need with prayer also. Yet, the broken in heart can only be touched by the LORD Himself. Have you ever needed the LORD to heal your heart?

“He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.” Psalms 147:3

The LORD delights to heal broken hearts and does so in response to the simple prayers of His people.

“the prayer of the upright is his delight.” Proverbs 15:8

Aren’t you glad our LORD cares so much about us and that we have a healthy heart?

Mission Mexico Part 26

Our LORD is Changing Lives here in Mexico

Last week our brother in Christ Vicente had a financial need and you met that need for Vicente and his family.

I brought him the money and he was… absolutely elated. He had been telling me about this pretty serious need for a few weeks. Finally I brought him the money he needed. God is able amen saints.

Update: Vicente update: I ran into our brother Vicente this morning and he was ministering to some men who were a work crew right outside of his restaurant on the street. I quickly handed him about 40 JESUS tracts and he began passing them to the men. Going to be supplying Vicente with more of the JESUS tract in Spanish soon.

Our brother is super overjoyed for the help he received to get his family vehicle repaired.

Jesus is God.
He’s coming.


More on the ministry to the Spanish speaking peoples of our LORD’s world! In the fellowship with the Florida group, a dear lady named Hilda repented and received Christ. Thank you for thanking our LORD for saving her and for His perfect will to be done in Hilda’s life. Phil 1:6



Excellent fruitful ministry time with Alex today. He’s also been sent the Born Again book in Spanish (PDF). Would you like to pause and ask God to bless, to save this man? (Ps 2:8; Acts 3:26)

“Matthew 5:3! No one wants to be in a humble state of submission in America. Even the so-called Christians! And be needy and weak. Like a little child. They pride themselves on all they can do. And why do I need God I can do it myself! This is why I love hearing testimonies of the people of Mexico who are poor in spirit, meek and humble! Without this you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.” Karen Cochran



Thank you for lifting in prayer the Mexican people – that many more will be saved and established in Christ (1 Timothy 2:4).

WHY IS THE KING JAMES VERSION CALLED THE “AUTHORIZED VERSION”?

Excerpt from “Answers To Your Bible Version Questions”

Question: Why is the King James Bible called the “Authorized Version”? How did King James Authorize it?

Answer: Despite stories to the contrary, King James, in no uncertain terms, clearly authorized the translation of the Bible that now bears his name.

[Note: This is a drastically shortened account of the birth of God’s preserved words in English. Longer accounts are available, as in Final Authority: A Christian’s Guide to the King James Bible, by William P. Grady.]

Sanctioning the Authorized Version

When Elizabeth died on April 1, 1603, she had seen 130 editions of the New Testament and the Bible published during her 45 years as Queen of England. James VI of Scotland, son of Mary, “Queen of Scots,” became James I of England.

Four days later, on his way to London, a delegation of Puritan ministers met James, asking him to hear their grievances against the Church of England. James consented, and on January of 1604, four Puritans came to express their troubles at Hampton Court, in front of King James and over 50 Anglican (Church of England) officials. One by one each request was rejected, until the Puritan group’s leader, John Rainolds said these famous words:

“May your Majesty be pleased to direct that the Bible be now translated, [since] such versions as are extant [are] not answering to the original.”

At first, Bishop Bancroft of London was dead-set against it, saying, “If every man’s humor might be followed, there would be no end to translating.” But the King made it clear he liked the idea. Not too long later Bancroft wrote this to a friend:

I move you in his majesty’s name that, … no time may be overstepped by you for the better furtherance of this holy work…. You will scarcely conceive how earnest his majesty is to have this work begun!

When this Bible was translated, the title page was printed basically as you find it today in Cambridge Bibles:

THE
HOLY BIBLE
CONTAINING THE
OLD AND NEW TESTAMENTS
TRANSLATED OUT OF THE ORIGINAL TONGUES:
AND WITH THE FORMER TRANSLATIONS
DILIGENTLY COMPARED AND REVISED
BY HIS MAJESTY’S SPECIAL COMMAND
 

APPOINTED TO BE READ IN CHURCHES

The King James Bible was “Authorized” to be translated as God’s Word for the English-speaking people of the world. God bless you as you study His authorized and preserved words in English, the King James Bible.
