Cafe Kindness is officially closed! 💖
I had planned to be open tomorrow but we ran out of pretty much every item and in my heart today just felt like the day. Lots of tears, both happy and sad.
I feel like the best way to say thank you and “see ya later” would be to give thanks to the Lord…
Lord, thank you. Thank you for this space. Thank you for being my business partner and trusting me with this the last 3 years. Thank you for the customers, those who have supported me and many who have become friends. Thank you for their endless patience with me. Thank you for letting me serve them in this special place. Thank you for every single employee I’ve gotten the opportunity to work alongside. Thank you for those relationships formed. Thank you for my husband, who many never met, but who supported me every single day behind the scenes…my biggest cheerleader and #1 fan. Thank you for my family. I literally could not have done this without them…Thank you for their selflessness. I am eternally grateful. Thank you for every single person who ever set foot inside Cafe Kindness… whether they came once or came multiple times a week, thank you. Thank you for allowing me to work with the sweetest vendors who filled the space with foods that honored our bodies kindly.
I pray kindness was received and I am so thankful for the kindness that was extended. Thank you for the lessons learned, the tears shed, the daily laughs, the love spread. My heart is full of gratitude and I give you all the glory Lord. It’s in Your name we praise, Amen.
2025 will hold so many exciting and wonderful opportunities for the space that once held Cafe Kindness and will continue to hold Zest. I can’t wait for you all to get to experience the goodness offered! So stay tuned! ✨
Thank you all. I love you… you will never know how much.
Kindly,
Anastasia Pendley
