The Micah Corps Interns ate
at a place called “Table Grace Cafe” in downtown Omaha today
(Wednesday July 10, 2013) after we met with some people who work for
the United Methodist Ministries. Table Grace Cafe is a Cafe is a
place that “everyone regardless of economic status, deserves the
chance to eat wonderful food while being treated with respect and
dignity.” Table Grace Cafe serves gourmet pizza, salad, and soups
on a daly basis. There is no set price for the food and different
varieties of pizza, salad, and soup are prepared daily by fresh
ingredients. There is a donation box for the food, so you can give as
much as you feel led to or can afford. Table Grace Cafe's mission is,
“to foster a healthy community by offering great food prepared and
served in a graceful manner to anyone who walks through the door.”

While at Table Grace today,
intern Rachel Linch, saw a man walk in the door to have some lunch.
She had to take a double look and realized that she recognized that
man so she asked interns Cassie and Tori if it was the man she
thought it was. It was and they were all three thrilled to see him.
They met this guy while working at the Open Door Mission in Omaha a
couple weeks ago. They helped conduct mock interviews one day for
people who are wanting to get back in the work force. He noticed us
sitting across the Cafe and said hello. All of us made some small
talk and in the middle of our small talk he slipped in that he has a
job now! Praise God! It was so exciting to hear that our work helped
him in the process of getting back into the working world! I truly
believe that we were all meant to be there at the same time so we
could hear the story about how this man that we helped practice
interviews just a couple weeks ago has already found a job!
