Our Journey

Coffee, Community, Connection
        

Java Journey Vision/Mission:
As people embark on the journey of life, we strive to intentionally create a
caring, loving atmosphere. Java Journey strives to serve and love people well while providing opportunities for relationships to be built and strengthened over excellent coffee, pastries and paninis.

A Little About “Us”:
We have lived in Rib Lake for the past 20 plus years, and we are blessed to call this community home. We love so many things about this community and desire to see it continue to be a great place to live, work, and raise a family - for ourselves and others that live here as well. We have been afforded many opportunities through the years, to be involved in the lives of many people, and we are grateful for all of the relationships we have built. We desire to continue to build and strengthen relationships with our customers. 

​

There are many "why's" to our story, and the reasons that presented themselves during the decision process we shared together that led to the creation of Java Journey. Our dream was to create a landing pad for anyone, those walking through the best of times and the worst of times. We wanted a place to live out love, build relationships and share the love of Christ-in words and actions. We wanted to build a positive hub on Main Street to connect with people and a place for people to connect with each other, while being able to do something we enjoy to do-bake and make coffee. We wanted to open a place of employment for adults and teens in our community so we could build lasting relationships with those people, while also teaching those people (and even our own children in the process) life skills, work skills we have gained along the journey of our lives, and the importance of showing kindness to others.

Our Prayer is that Java Journey is a place that people will know they are created with amazing worth, and will be loved well.
