What we Are

The coffee house is a non-profit, volunteer-run establishment that operates out of a building owned by University Heights Baptist Church. One hundred percent of our proceeds are donated to local and international organizations that help create change in the world: Wings of Hope, Stillwater Life Services, OSU FCA, Mission of Hope, Our Daily Bread, and so forth.

Our Start

We are a non profit, volunteer run coffee shop owned by University Heights Baptist Church in Stillwater, OK. Originally named The International Coffee House, UHBC purchased the building of the original Hideaway pizza with plans to create a transitional environment for international students. Naturally, coffee and other refreshments were served when the students gathered but unfortunately closed down for a few years.

In 2008 we opened as a non profit renamed the coffee house where people could come read, hangout, study, drink coffee, and feel safe. The volunteers have continued to work faithfully making the coffee house a welcoming and loving space where we donate 100% of our donations and proceeds to other non profit and local mission organizations serving Stillwater.

Our Mission

We have three passions at the coffee house - Jesus, hospitality, & coffee. From the very beginning, the goal was to provide a safe and positive environments for students to study. It was not to raise fund for “helping” organizations, nor to proselytize, nor to be a trendy outreach tool for the church. Our mission is to genuinely care about people and our community the way that Jesus calls us to do.
