The little country cafe is where everything began. In 2013, Pam Turney opened a small store and cafe. Feeding her community with deli sandwiches, and delicious hot lunches but she never imagined what God had planned. Back in 2012, Graves was 46 and a single mother of five. She had a college degree but was working multiple jobs in order to make ends meet. “I kind of catered my jobs around what my expenses were," she said. "I didn't try to make any more than just the money we needed, so I could spend time with the kids." God so fully and   faithfully answered her prayer when she saw the old building available. “For sale cheap” was the sign on the roadside marque. This was almost twelve years ago.  Since then, God has shown his true intention in giving Pam this store and cafe. His hand and His plan were always working behind the scenes, and in the little moments. Through this little cafe, God has brought local ministries for so many people, international ministries, discipleship groups, and even salvations. People gather every week here to eat delicious meals, to fellowship with one another, to worship and pray, and to feel at home. If you’ve ever stepped through the doors of Graves Grocery, you can attest to just that.
