In the middle of one of the darkest times in human history, the ten Boom family stood as a beacon of hope, welcoming the Jewish people into their home during the atrocities of the holocaust. As a family, the ten Boom’s were unwavering in their love and kindness for their Jewish brothers and sisters, standing against the evils of the day and serving as a refuge and hiding place for those in need.
At Ten Boom Coffee, we strive to embody the ten Boom family’s spirit of hospitality, connection, and courage. We believe in creating welcoming spaces where strangers become friends, stories are shared, and hearts are united. Committed to standing up for what is right, we aim to inspire others to do the same, fostering a community of kindness, integrity, and hope.
The beloved Corrie ten Boom died April 15th, 1983, the same day that she was born in 1892. It is Jewish belief that if you die on your birthday you have completed your God-given task on earth.
At Ten Boom Coffee, we aim to honor the life and legacy of Corrie by embodying the values she stood for and extending them to our communities today. Our goal is to inspire a new generation of individuals who, like Corrie, champion love, truth, and reflect the light of Christ in a world often overshadowed by darkness.
In the latter half of her life, Corrie ten Boom traveled extensively, sharing her powerful testimony. During these journeys, she frequently visited our family in Destin, FL, where she became an integral part of our lives, affectionately calling it her "Emerald Coast Hiding Place." Corrie became a close family friend, passing down not only some of her personal belongings but also her impactful stories and legacy, which we are dedicated to preserving and sharing today.
