HOLY JOE'S CAFE is the conduit for chaplains who set up an oasis not in size but in purpose. It's the "taste of home" through coffee which is the most important place for people when they are in the midst of great havoc.  Chaplain Daniel Middlebrooks






HOLY JOE'S CAFE is a place where the chaplains in the small Forward Operating Bases, hangar bays, hospitals, aid stations, and their makeshift chapels are able to bring a taste of home to the tired, the anxious, the lonely and the wounded. They all can get gourmet coffee, a reminder that the world they willingly left behind still cares.   Chaplain Andrew Sholtes
