About
Who We Are
Business As Mission
We are a “business as mission” coffeehouse with a bold vision to make a difference in both our local community and globally. Our focus goes beyond serving excellent coffee and food, we will also provide a unique atmosphere that excels in developing healthy community and gives back both locally and globally. A portion of our overall profits will go to both local and global ministries and charities as chosen by our 12 Stones Coffee Advisory Board.
Since we are a new business and we recognize that it may take a bit until we are making a profit, we are also starting “Coffee with a Cause.” This program is a way for us to start giving back from the moment we open our doors. We will sell retail bags of a single origin coffee bean until they are gone. Once gone, the profits will go to a charity or ministry. (We will expand on this explanation once we are ready to open and know both the bean we’ll be selling and which charities profits will go to.)
OUR NAME
The 12 Stones Coffee name was inspired by the 12 stones of remembrance in Joshua 4. God commands Joshua to grab 12 stones from the Jordan River where he parted the waters for the Israelites to cross over into the “Promised Land.” The stones were used to build a memorial to remind future generations of the fulfilled promises of God. The 12 stones stand as a reminder for us today of God’s faithfulness, fulfilled promises, and Him going before us to remove any obstacles that remain on the path to the purpose He has put before us.
Our Story
The dream to open a coffeehouse started over 20 years ago for owner, Dina Maas. In fact, she had a partner, funding and place picked out to open in western North Dakota. The name was going to be Wind Canyon Coffee, a tribute to a favorite spot in the badlands where the Little Missouri River runs. In fact, a piece of driftwood from the Little Missouri River bed now hangs at 12 Stones Coffee Co. in tribute to where the dream first began. Life circumstances intervened and that coffeehouse was not to be. However, the dream never died, but rather matured and continued to be shaped by a greater vision God was placing in her heart. Several years ago, the concept of 12 Stones Coffee Company was born in Hazen, ND. Once again, life circumstances intervened and owners Troy and Dina Maas found themselves moving to Bismarck just over a year ago. And, here we are today.
