Coffee Connection looks to close its doors after 15 years of service

After providing a safe space for those in need in this community for 15 years, Coffee Connection in downtown Hopkinsville will soon close its doors.

Coffee Connection has been many things for many people for the years, but it is technically a private-owned community center that has been known for showing support for those in the community who needed a little more help, often struggling with homelessness. It’s owned by Terri Henderson, with Henderson now looking to retire.

In a post to social media, with Henderson looking forward to retirement, the final day for Coffee Connection will be April 23, and they have already transitioned to only being open on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8 a.m. until 3 p.m. They will have furniture and miscellaneous items available for sale as they work on clearing out the building that has been home to numerous cups of coffee, warm meals, prayer, laughter and of warm welcomes to all those looking for a place to rest their feet.

They’re asking that clothing donations be taken to Impact Ministries at 513 West Ninth Street, so they can continue helping those in need. They say, “From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who supported, volunteered, donated, prayed, and loved this place over the years.”
