Soul Café Helpful Hints
It is up to each individual if you want to set up/make coffee before service or during service (I personally feel better if I prep before service)!
Coffee (see instruction sheet in drawer under the coffee maker) typically 2 pots regular and 1 decaf.
If service looks like a “larger” crowd you can make 1 regular pot during soul café.
Treats- usually can be found on top of the soul café cart or on kitchen counter.
At times they may be located in the fridge or freezer,
but we try to let you know if that is the case.
Juice, Milk, & Coffee can be brought to the gathering area on a cart from the kitchen.
You can serve coffee from carafes located underneath island in the kitchen.
Napkins, stirrers, cups, etc should be in the soul café cart. Please make sure the sugar, sweet n low, stirrers, powdered creamer, and napkins are on top of soul café cart to be easily accessible. If something is low you can look in the back kitchen pantry. If you notice something is empty or running low please let Mary or Camilla know.

AED/CPR Training Classes @ PUMC--RSVP'S NEEDED!
We were approved to get an AED from Advanced Medical Transport as part of a grant program. They will provide a training at PUMC on September 24th after church. The training will be about 3 hours and lunch will be provided.
As part of the grant requirements, we are required to have 25 people at the training. Those at the training will be trained on CPR/first aid and how to use the AED. This "Hands Only" class is a great way to learn the fundamentals of CPR. We also cover how to use an AED. No certification for this class.
This training is open to prospect attenders and the community.
CHILDCARE WILL BE PROVIDED!!!
If you plan to attend the training, please RSVP this week to Dani!!!
