Welcome New Member: Kate’s Canine Care, LLC
Hi, my name is Kate and I’ve been running Kate’s Canine Care LLC since 2016. In the beginning, I didn’t know that it would turn into the lucrative business that it is today and I couldn’t be more grateful. I was attending college at Rutgers University, babysitting, and dog walking on the side. I realized quickly that I was not heading in the right direction. I knew in my heart that I wanted to work for myself (and with animals) because I’ve always had an entrepreneurial spirit.
I had no idea what was to come, but I put my whole heart and energy into creating my business. I started off on Rover, and then branched out and became an LLC with my own insurance. I became interested with marketing and advertising, and my business took off. What I do makes my heart so happy and I couldn’t be more thrilled about what I’ve created. I love the flexibility, working with wonderful animals every single day, and providing my customers with stellar pet care. This job allows me to live the life I want and have the freedom I desire.

Welcome New Member: Brew Coffee Bar
Brandon Castro, the owner of the new Brew Coffee Bar, believes that through coffee and community, his business can become a hotspot at 133a Main St., Matawan.
“While in quarantine, I decided to take my love of coffee to the next level and become Specialty Coffee Association certified in the science and preparation of coffee brewing and tasting. I studied online and in-person through Coffee Project New York,” Castro said.
“Brew Coffee Bar focuses on American style drip coffee and pour-overs. We offer several local coffee blends that are approachable, but sustainably sourced. With offerings from light to dark roasts there is something for everyone. We also carry light pastries and locally blended teas,” he said.
As the owner of a small business, Castro expressed the importance of supporting home-grown businesses by shopping locally. He said the personalized level of service his business can provide to its customers cannot always be found at larger operations.
“It is important to shop local because those businesses are usually the ones most passionate about their craft or service; they offer a level of care and love you won’t find at big-name places … when you can stay in town or right next door, you get to know the owners and the daily workers. That bond to the local products or people is a feeling like no other,” Castro said.
Castro, who is a native of Brooklyn, N.Y., attended the local Cliffwood Elementary School and graduated from Matawan Regional High School. He has a passion for creating a local space that serves those around him. For Castro, the goal of Brew Coffee Bar is “to become a staple of the community” by offering high-quality service, hosting social events and “bringing awareness to what coffee can be.”

Welcome New Member: Elise Lenhart

I’ve pursued a longing to understand the moments in our life that show us the depth of who we are, whether those moments are joyful, sorrowful or in the quiet moments we spend enjoying family and friends. Life has an uncanny way of reminding us who we are and why we are here, and my love of travel, new cultures and the friendships I’ve fostered along the way has been a catalyst to understand why I’m here.
What I’ve come to learn along the way is how easily we can miss the beauty of life that surrounds us, even in the smallest of moments. To celebrate the beauty of life and the lives of our loved ones is one of the ways we nurture our legacy for others to carry forward.

We are especially sensitive to those who have little or no history of religious expression, but who yearn for spiritual meaning and experience. We reach out to those who are lonely, on the margin of life, and those who experience discrimination with respect to race or gender identity and expression. We gather every Sunday at 10 am. Come early and enjoy praise music. Refreshments and friendship take place afterward in the Fellowship Hall.
The church serves the community in a variety of ministries: a Food Pantry, Thrift Shop and a Flea Market on Saturdays, beginning in May. We support the Women’s Shelter with a Holiday collection. The church sponsors both a boy scout and a girl scout troop. Our volley ball court was renovated by High School volunteers and is open to the public. We offer Rummage Sales twice a year, as well as special dinners and a Holiday Tea as fundraisers. Two districts vote here.
Our pastor, Nick Connolly, entered a life of ministry sixty years ago, first as a Jesuit for twenty-four years, the remaining years as a United Methodist pastor. He brings a background in professional counseling. He simply loves being a pastor and connecting with others. Come! Find the divine within yourself and share the joy!

Welcome New Member: Business Insurance Consultants, Inc
(BIC & Affiliates, LLC)
Protecting businesses and individuals – since 1990. Your Full Service “TRUSTED CHOICE” Independent Insurance Agent.
Shopping for insurance can be time-consuming and confusing; realizing that you have insufficient policy limits or being denied coverage by your insurer will not only anger you but can set you back financially or possibly even bankrupt you. The media is constantly bombarding us with advertisements on how to save money on car and home insurance, but how do you really know what is best for your particular needs? We all know that cheaper is not always better; why should it be any different with insurance? Are these people giving you proper advice or are you just being sold? Why be stuck with the products and limitations of only one insurance company? Wouldn’t you rather have choices and representatives working on your BEHALF with your best interest in mind?

Welcome New Member: VoiceNEXT
Fourteen years ago, Mike and I set out to build a better phone company for business. Back then, not too many people had ever heard of VoIP which stands for Voice over Internet Protocol. It may not yet be a household word, but today, it is much more recognized. The Internet was called the Internet. Now it is popular to call it the Cloud.
So we started VoiceNEXT, a phone company that hosts our clients’ phone systems in the Cloud. That means several things. There are savings up to 80% over the cost of other business phone systems because there is no “phone system” to buy. Our customers need only buy the phones. Our voice quality is unparalleled. You need never miss an important phone call ever again as our mobility features can keep you in touch no matter where you happen to be. Snow storm keeping you from getting to the office? Is there a power outage? Is the Internet down? None of these will interrupt your ability to communicate if you are a VoiceNEXT customer.
The most important reason to consider moving your business phone services to VoiceNEXT is that we care as much about our business you do. We are the phone company that ALWAYS answers the phone. Need help, need to make a change, we are there for you 24/7/365. There is no need to press ten buttons before you get to speak to a live person.
So if your old phone system is on its last legs, or if you want to reduce costs, increase efficiency and productivity, give us a call us to talk about how VoiceNEXT can help your business grow. Let us manage your communications so that you can manage of your business.
