MEGA CONSTRUCTION-AND-OTHER-THINGS UPDATE #2

· By Tuesday the 9th, we will have greatly improved AC up front, and the drive-through will be open for traffic!

Due to the intense statewide attention that this month's specials have received, we've had a lot more people ask about the website, and a lot more merch sales, than we anticipated. So:

· The website is currently down for development - we expect to be relaunching it with improved online ordering within the next month/month and a half, Lord willing. For now, Facebook, emailing, calling, or stopping in are the best ways to get ahold of us or learn about our offerings.

· What merch we have available can be found through the attached Etsy link, also in our Facebook profile and Instagram bio: https://www.etsy.com/shop/CarlsBakeryMN

· We will be restocking merch as well as adding some items to the store mid-June.

Thanks, and God bless!

A few clarifications, and a merch plug:

-The word “homophobic” gets used a lot in the comments here; we’d like to be very clear that we have no phobias regarding those struggling with same-sex attraction or gender dysphoria, but rather love them as Christ loves them. In fact, as Christians, we do not operate under any fear of man. “Whoever fears the Lord has a secure fortress, and for their children it will be a refuge.” - Proverbs 14:26

-Various members of our family being in**ed is, for some reason, a common refrain in the comment section; perhaps this is simply a spelling error on the part of those who allege it, because while we are not in**ed, we are definitely “in bread”.

-The definition of a nuclear family we would promote is that of one husband, one wife, and any biological, adopted, or fostered children. - (Corrected for further clarity)

-We serve customers, regardless of their ideology or circumstance. While we reserve the right to refuse service or to place a limit on what we create, we welcome people from all walks of life through our doors, whether we agree with them on any issue or not, and we will always seek to do so with the respect they deserve as fellow image bearers of God.

-On a similar note, there seems to be an idea going around that, because we choose to celebrate the nuclear family as previously defined, we are refusing service to everything else. A store holding a sale on women’s clothing is not being “exclusionary” towards men, and an event offering Veteran’s Day specials is not being “bigoted” towards civilians.

-There’s a lot of attempts to start a Bible study in the comments - we’d be more than happy to discuss our position and why we think it’s one that Scripture commands, but wisdom keeps us from getting into it on Facebook.

-And finally, Nuclear Family Stickers are now available at the store! Pick one up with your donuts and coffee.

God bless!

Happy Wednesday! We generated quite a bit of negative reviews/commentary yesterday with our Nuclear Family post, but far more positive and encouraging feedback overall.

So, in an effort to double down on our Biblical, American, small-town values and encourage those who share them, we invite you to stop on by to purchase your very own Hat! Also a reminder to you married couples: enjoy a free brewed coffee on us this week when you stop by together! 💍💍

Happy Tuesday! The Lunch Menu this week includes our Artisan Sandwich of the week, Bacon Turkey Melt (on Green Olive Garlic Sourdough); and you can get it with a side of Kettle Chips, Pickles, or Wedding Ring Salad!

On this 250th anniversary of our great nation’s founding, the list of troubles that plague us is quite long: from economic woes -- to general distrust of our institutions-- to a precipitously declining national birthrate-- to a major breakdown in generational continuity within families that do have children.

In short, we find ourselves as a nation in rather perilous and tumultuous times, and our little town is by no means immune from these woes.

Rather than fixating on these woes, however, we would like to focus our attention on what we believe both nature's law and nature’s God reveal as the primary building block for any great society: The Nuclear Family.

So out of love for our neighbors and our nation, and in solidarity with our brethren from the great state of Tennessee, for the month of June we wish to celebrate The Nuclear Family!

More pointedly, we wish to do so in honor of the only design we believe brings about the multi-generational good we seek, the one instituted by our Creator: one man and one woman in a covenantal (married) relationship, eagerly receiving the fruit of their union (children) as God allows.

Along those lines we will be introducing a number of weekly specials and welcome any and all to join in the fun of the month ahead!!
