Bread Coffeehouse is a place unlike any other on campus...a place where good coffee flows freely, yummy treats are served daily, where residents and staff know your name, where you will be treated with love no matter what you believe, a place that never pushes Jesus on you but a place where the staff believes in serving Jesus by serving you and loving you. We have live bands, great dinners, quiet study times, deep conversations, great story tellers and people who will listen to you. And, we are a lot of fun! Come play ping pong or a board game, write quotes on the wall, swing in our indoor hammock, decorate a book page, play with our play dough or dance in the kitchen. Check our website for hours and events.

Latino Fellowship (LaFe) is a place where Latinos can grow and explore their faith, become a close-knit community, and be their authentic selves. There is a growing population of Latino students at Emory, and there is no organization that currently exists that caters to Latinos by providing them with a space to grow in their Christian faith. Religion plays a huge role in the Latino community, defining our identity and culture. Having a space where Latinos at Emory can be connected with that part of their culture and identity is essential and beneficial. LaFe provides that space and allows students to see themselves represented on this campus and connect to a community of fellow Latinos with whom they can relate.
