A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of touring Chick-fil-A‘s corporate headquarters in Atlanta, where I spent time learning about everything Chick-fil-A. Above is a picture of the CFA Corporate Purpose:
To glorify God by being a faithful steward of all that is entrusted to us. To have a positive influence on all who come in contact with Chick-fil-A. (Insert your own name where it says Chick-fil-A and that’s a worthy 2012 goal, isn’t it?)
This is a picture of the inside of the corporate headquarters. Absolutely gorgeous, and so inspiring! These traits are bannered all inside of the corporate plaza, and were a tribute to the characteristics that their leader Truett Cathy has exhibited in leading their company.
This bronze sculpture took my breath away. It is Jesus washing His disciple Peter’s feet. It’s a reminder to all that we are to follow Christ’s example and serve others. It was so beautiful. This was just one of many evidences throughout the tour that showed Chick-fil-A exists to serve Christ first, and to serve Him by serving others. I’m thrilled to partner with a company that mirrors my own personal values.
The high point of my time in Atlanta was sitting down with Dan Cathy, CFA founder Truett Cathy’s son, and some of my favorite blogger friends at The Dwarf House–the original Chick-fil-A! Dan described some of Chick-fil-A’s upcoming goals, one of which has to do with offering more nutritious items on their menu–so that we and our kids can have more options when it comes to learning how to be healthy.
Chick-fil-A is launching their new menu items today (January 9, 2012) at Chick-fil-A’s around the country. We got to try them, and believe me, you are going to love them!
New menu items include:
- Buddy Fruit Applesauce
- Grilled Chicken Nuggets
- Chicken Tortilla Soup
You and your kids are going to love these new selections!
If you are a Nashville/Middle Tennessee reader, head over to Nashville Provisions to learn about a fun event just for you!
I love this company & all the wonderful things they do . I wish there were more companies like them.
Nothing compares to Chick-Fil-A!
My family loves Chick-fil-A! Their promotions are the best, too! We’ve spent many of our “family days” there.
As a Mom and former Nurse, I am honored to be now working at Chick-Fil-A! I love the healthy alternatives and really enjoy seeing our raging fans! They are so special! Seeing families bonding over a good nutritious meal is a thrill! I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Dan Cathy too and his sincere encouragement was awe inspiring! Kelly, I’m so happy that you got to experience his presence. It’s a pretty incredible experience, I know! I am also a proud subscriber to Faithful Provisions! Keep up the great work!
Natalie – Thank you so much for your sweet comments. I couldn’t agree more with you! I feel blessed to have just been able to be in their offices, it had such a presence. I am so glad to have you as subscriber and reader! Thanks for reading.
My Pleasure! ;-D
Finally! Grilled Nuggets! YAY!!!!!
I LOVE Chick-fil-A – I just wish they would go a little easier on the SALT. They go way over the top on salt.
