Our cafe is run by a small group of families and single people who live together in three houses in Rutland, VT. We call ourselves
The Community in Rutland
We live together because of a simple faith that we have in the Son of God. We are people who saw a lot of wrong things in the world and then realized that they were only there for the same reasons they were in us. We wanted to change. In Yahshua ( the Hebrew word that is translated in the Bible as "Jesus") we found the remedy. Our faith is an emulation of what was demonstrated by His early followers, not what it has become (certainly something different). They expressed their love for their savior by sharing everything they had and serving one another. They lived together like we do.

We are a small part of something old that is being born. Many people know us as part of the Twelve Tribes Communities. We have a very nice website that is filled with information about us as a people:
