Enjoy a warm atmosphere, friendly service, and community-building events. Our space is open to you for working, studying, playing a game with friends and family, or hosting a small group meet-up. Let’s make St. Francois County – Better Together – one cup at a time!

For twenty years, King’s College (India) has been discipling future leaders in an educational context. Since 2000, its students have been equipped to overcome their backgrounds of poverty and social discrimination and look forward to lives of hope, opportunity, and leadership within their churches, vocations and communities. 

The primary focus of King’s College is to train young men and women to be life-long followers of Jesus. The students receive a quality, English-medium education in a Christian environment while also being intentionally discipled. By partnering with local churches, students play a role in local ministry where they teach Sunday school, participate in the youth group and assist where needed. 

King’s College graduates are now working as pastors, teachers, managers, nurses and academics to the glory of God.
