Jacob's Well Christian Coffeehouse

06/08/2026

41 years ago today, on June 8, 1985, Jacob's Well Christian Coffeehouse Founder/Director Drew Crandall was "born again" during a Christian business breakfast held inside the Jonathan Edwards meeting room at the Ramada Inn off I-91 in East Windsor.
"I walked into the room one person," he says, "and walked out a New Creation in Christ Jesus. Praise God for His Amazing Grace!"

For 30 years (1985-2025), every time Jacob's Well was held, Drew shared a simple Gospel message and invitation. Over the decades, hundreds of souls placed their first-time faith in Christ for the forgiveness of their sins and the free gift of eternal life in heaven. Many more souls recommitted their lives to Christ.

Now's the time to order your tickets, apply for a sponsorship and/or ministry expo display space. This unique, annual gathering of Christ-followers across Connecticut has been held for decades.

One high-profile non-profit leader describes this event as a "family reunion," a beautiful assembly of individuals, couples, churches, ministries and businesses who enthusiastically gather to literally Celebrate Jesus and what He has, is and will do through WIHS for His Kingdom sake!

Former Jacob's Well founder and director Drew Crandall will be playing Latin Percussion in the WIHS "In His Service" Praise Band and speaking as President of WIHS 104.9 FM Christian Radio. For details and online ordering links, see https://www.wihsradio.org/.../annual-banquet-on-october-18/

The final leg of the 30-year journey of Jacob's Well ended today in a beautiful fashion. A happy ending, indeed! Walter Santos, Dave Pettigrew, Arno Groot and the new WIHS In His Service praise band drilled it! And at least one soul was saved during the final Jacob's Well gospel message and invitation. Praise God!

Many are sad to see Jacob's Well go, but are eager to see what the Lord does with the WIHS Amphitheater in the days, months and years ahead. Today's "test of concept" was excellent! Thanks to all involved, and especially our Creator!

We were setting up the grass parking lots today for tomorrow's Grand Finale at WIHS, and the weather was spectacular. So was the setting. This is a gorgeous place for an amphitheater, and to host an outdoor concert. Mid-80s, partly sunny with a nice 9 mph breeze.

Please join us! The event begins promptly at 1 pm, so it's best to try to get there around 12 noon to give you some margin for traffic etc. Parking and admission are free.
