A group of us mission-hearted Christians in Steubenville, with a passion to see God transform our city got together in November of 2011. We decided to join together to do what we can do to make Christ more present in our city. Though we were all real busy with our own work and ministries, we knew that if we did this ministry TOGETHER, we could see something beautiful happen.
And so "Mama Nita's" was birthed in the Spring of 2012.
Katie purchased a gorgeous small mansion "in the hood" of Steubenville--the perfect place to see transformation of our city take place. A few of us volunteers are living there, building relationship with neighbors and inviting others into our home for weekly praise and worship times, prayer for the city weekly, and starting positive entertainment evenings... Unity in the Body of Christ is organically emerging from everyone's generous hearts and hands to see this ministry come to fruition.
God is saying to us it's to be a place, a ministry that brings people together for the sake of encountering His Love and Presence and building Unity in the Body of Christ. I think the fact that over 3000 joy-filled volunteer hours have been given since we started will speak for itself!
We're excited about what God's gonna do at Mama Nita's Coffee House! God bless you! Please keep us in prayers!
