FAIR TRADE COFFEE:
St. James has made the decision to serve only Fair Trade coffee.
This decision was made to help assure that coffee farmers receive a fair price for their product.
Fair Trade coffee is more expensive.
As a means of supporting our decision and also offering the congregation to the opportunity to use Fair Trade coffee at home,
12 oz bags will be available ( in room 9) for $10.00/bag.
