THE DREAM

KAFE KISKEYA creates a comfortable space for folks from various parts of the city to meet in & share time together. ~ KISKEYA is the Taino Indian word for Mother of the Earth & is what the Island of Hispaniola, including Haiti & Dominican Republic, was called before Columbus arrived over 500 years ago, a time when all of the inhabitants lived in harmony. ~ THE DREAM is for all of humanity to once again live together peacefully on this Earth. By spending time together, we can make that dream a reality!

ADDITIONALLY, WE'RE COLLECTING DONATIONS FOR CHERITH BROOK COMMUNITY:

Winter is on our heals and we are in need of winter items for women and men. The weather fluctuation has already brought and increase in numbers as people are seeking a way to get warmed up from the night’s air.

In particular we need winter coats, hats and gloves. Long underwear can also come in handy. Please check your closets for any coats extra hats and gloves you are no longer using. If you have a neighbor in need of it, give it to her or him first. Cherith Brook would ask for what is left over.

Let us redistribute our resources, not in the name of socialism, or capitalism, but in the name of the homeless Jesus who had no place to lay his head and yet came offering life abundant. May the Church be that sign of God's presence we have been called to be!
