Do you know where the Apostles went for their morning espresso? …HEBREWS!

Hi! I’m Cheryl, and I’m a barista at One Love’s Compassion Cafe, where I get to serve alongside some truly amazing, dedicated volunteers.

I was born and raised on the beautiful island of Guam and moved to Honolulu back in 2004. I actually planned on going to college on the mainland, but God had other ideas—His plan, not mine! In 2007, I met my husband, who introduced me to Jesus. Before that, I was pretty caught up in the Theory of Evolution. I grew up in a home where church was just a box to check on Sundays, and I didn’t understand what it meant to have a real relationship with God.

But James 4:8 says, “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.” The more I heard God’s Word, the more my eyes were opened, and I realized Jesus was calling me home.

Today, my absolute greatest joy is serving the Lord, loving my family, and talking about His amazing grace. I’m so incredibly grateful to serve our church community and share Christ’s love—one cup of coffee/tea at a time.
