Atheist here. I don’t mind these folks stating this in their mission. My understanding is the owners have been a positive presence for their community at large and through the pandemic. I don’t mind that they wear their faith on their sleeve. Sounds like they use their faith as a guide to spread kindness in the world. I’m alright with that. Now I’m scheming to find a way to saint A to get some delish donuts. FWIW Black owned business in VT is something I would like to encourage.

It's more that I'm wary about getting imagery and words thrown at me that I associate with abuse and toxicity. I'd rather not visit a place that I think is likely to make me hyper vigilant and anxious, or even unsafe.
