When asked "Who owns your company or runs daily operations?" Janet Huffman at A Cup of The Word Christian Bookstore replied "God is the owner, he allows me to run the day-to-day operations." That kind of servant's heart attitude is apparent as soon as you walk through the door at A Cup of The Word. Whether you're looking for something specific or just want to browse the beautiful artwork and gift section, they can help you.
Janet's background includes a
bachelors degree in Accounting, a CPA certificate and an MBA.
She has worked in accounting, auditing, and enterprise-level software education and consulting. But a few years ago, she says God placed it on her heart to open a store. She had become involved in missions at her church (McEachern Methodist, where she also teaches an ESOL class) and she was looking for small items to take to Venezuela. At the time, she could not find anything written in Spanish except for a
few Bibles. Janet later opened A Cup of The Word in November of 2006.A Cup of The Word carries Bibles, books, gifts, greeting cards, CDs and DVDs. They are also a platinum dealer of the popular Willow Tree Collection by Demdaco.
There is a wonderful Children's section in the back of the store with a play area to entertain children so parents can shop. There's also a cozy corner with a few chairs where you can relax and thumb through books. A Cup of The Word also sells beautful art pieces and gifts for all ages.
If they don't have it they can get it!
Janet says they
welcome individual and group special orders and offer quantity discounts. They are also available to pray with and for anyone who desires it. Doesn't everyone need prayer?A Cup of The Word is open Mon, Tues, Thurs, and Fri 10am – 8pm, Wed 10am – 5pm, and Sat 10am – 6pm (New hours for Wed took effect the first of January to allow staff to participate in church and school activities.)
