A Visit to Chick-Fil-A Headquarters

Not too long ago, our friend and neighbor, Bill Connolly got hired by Chick-Fil-A restaurant in their IT department.  The day the kids arrived at the airport, the Connolly's invited us to have lunch with them at Chick-Fil-A Headquarters.  So we ate there just before going to the airport.  It was a special treat to go there.

I've long since admired the founder, Truett Cathy for his approach to business.  All Chick-Fil-A restaurants are closed on Sundays so employees can attend church and spend time with their families.  That's rather unique for a restaurant chain.  He pours so much of what he makes back into the community.  See the Winshape website and look at some of the ministries he sponsors.  The idea of Winshape Homes helped inspire Duk-Sun and I to start hosting students full time, as a way to reach out to them and make them feel the love of Christ as they attend school half way around the world.
