Small Step Of Faith

By Staff | Jan 16, 2019

Our reporter was jubilant when she returned to the office Friday after traveling to Hundred to interview Lori Allen, proprietor of Lori’s Cup of Joe. Contrary to what one might believe, feature stories showcasing the fine folks of Wetzel County are the rewards of this job. We love sharing good news.

Lori’s Cup of Joe is a “good news” story. If the thought of a quaint little coffee shop offering warm cups of coffee and fresh sandwiches doesn’t catch your attention, the story of the coffee shop’s beginnings, and the faith Lori and Joe had when pursuing the endeavor, will surely inspire and make you smile.

Lori explained how the Allens often take steps of faith, and the past two years’ events have perhaps shown the rewards of these steps. Lori explained the image of the coffee shop, after the devastating flooding of 2017. The small and humble shop, standing strong like a beacon of light.

This was a sign the Allens were where they were meant to be.

We believe Lori and Joe are rather like beacons of light as well. They show what can happen by taking a small step of faith. They inspire us.

Happy Second Birthday, Lori’s Cup of Joe. Here’s to many more.
