Holy Grounds Beginnings

Holy Grounds was envisioned to be a quiet and fun place for students and community members to come and have a delicious cup of coffee. Holy Grounds visionary was a man named Gordon Shea. Gordon was the Chaplain here at Smith Chapel from 1994 to 2001 when he passed away. To honor his memory the President of Simpson, Kevin LaGree, helped fulfill Gordon's dream by lending the chapel the money to get Holy Grounds started. Since then Holy Grounds has remained a non-profit coffee shop, committed to benefiting the local community, coffee farmers, and the environment while making enough money to repay our debt.

What is the Coffee Shop all about?

It's not about making money but being here for the campus community. Our goal is to provide students and community members a place to hang out and enjoy each other and a cup of joe.

We are located in Dirlam Lounge in Smith Chapel. It's an awesome place to study, relax on the couches, enjoy the fireplace when it gets chilly and listen to

some great tunes, watch TV or play Play Station.

All of our workers work on a volunteer basis but never scrimp on service. Tips are always welcome! If you have any questions about our coffees, suggestions, or would like to work with us, feel free to e-mail us: coffee@simpson.edu or call 515-961-1416.
