LEADING A GENERATION TO TELL THE STORY OF JESUS WHERE IT HAS NEVER BEEN TOLD
Cafe 1040’s mission was formed around the reality that there are billions of people without access to the story of Jesus.

This reality fuels our mission to empower the next generation of missionaries to tell the story of Jesus in places it is not yet told. We believe that God has been working throughout history to gather worshippers from all nations.
