It’s a beautiful morning in Lancaster City.
You walk through the doors greeted with not only smells of warmth and cinnamon, but also the sweet smiles of a family of hardworking women. The array of diverse music being played over the speakers and various conversation in each woman’s native language is a joy to listen to!
People are already busy at work preparing fresh stroopwafels, melting chocolate, filling boxes, and fulfilling orders. The list of things to do are an ongoing variety of tasks, and each one is done with joy. Sometimes you may be adding labels to a bag. Other times you may be bagging crumbles for customers who look forward to an extra fun ice cream topping. Each job is important, and each person pours 100% into what she does. Each product is made with love and intention. We are here to serve our community whether locally or across the country.
While stroopwafels may be our main attraction, our homemade ice cream and freshly roasted coffee also brings another layer of energy in the room. Both are prepared with a lot of precision and given quality attention.
When we break for lunch, we set up family style: all the food in the middle of the table with place settings all around ready to share and enjoy. No one walks away hungry!
English classes continue throughout the day with joy-filled teachers sharing their hearts with each employee. The learning and laughter emanates the room!
Each day is a gift. It is another opportunity to love your neighbor. It is another opportunity to bring happiness to at least one more person. It is another opportunity to expand your learning and experience life from someone else’s perspective.
We are grateful to be on this team together and serve you with genuine gladness!
