Pete Christus’ Right to Serve God and Fellowmen
A Boonville Missouri cafe honors Pete Christus II and his father Pete Christus I, Greek immigrant turned benefactor. The restaurant displays Leonardo Da Vinci’s Last Supper on a cafe wall and a bold motto about serving God and fellowmen. Christus II is active in community service and public life, meeting patrons at Rotary events and school board activities. The piece highlights immigrant perseverance, faith driven service, and a family legacy of business and civic involvement.
