Coffee Association helps Children’s Homes

Every year on the first Monday in December, Coffee Baptist Association collects cakes and other treats such as peanut brittle, cake mixes and icing, brownies, cupcakes, breads and even party goods to be used at the Alabama Baptist Children’s Homes & Family Ministries (ABCH) sites throughout the year. Coffee Association is the only association that does this, thus the name ‘Coffee Cakes’ came to be. On Dec. 2, 436 items were picked up to be delivered to ABCH sites across the state. Shown in the photo loading the goodies are (l to r) Kaye Clark, of Coffee Baptist Association; Riley Green, of the ABCH main office in Birmingham; and Mike Pickels, of Alabama Baptist Children’s Home in Dothan.
