b) Vision of monastery
• Increase size from 13 to 30 monks
• Purchase 496 acre ranch

c) Vision for Mystic Coffee
• There is no true vision except to fund the Carmelite Monks

• It has had a good financial performance but not advance in market or company competitive strength
6. a) I would recommend that Father Daniel Mary get part time help during prayer.
• Change objective to include buying new roaster to make more profit from coffee to buy ranch
• Hire
