Too Much Stuff? Donate it!

First Christian Church's Children's Ministry will be having a series of sales at our new "Chapel Thrift Store" all during the month of July to pay for a trip to Kansas City, Missouri. There, the children will visit a Community Garden that is home to many refugees from around the world. A refugee is a person who must leave her home because of a "well-founded fear" of religious, political, or human persecution." We hope that the children will benefit from the trip by 1) learning more about community gardening, and 2)learn about refugees and how we can help them.

We're having pretty good luck with sales this week (June 29-30. In fact, we need more stuff! If you have a bit of clutter around the house, like the beautiful butter jar above, or the neat books below. Please consider donating.

And, of course, stop by Chapel Thrift today and...load up!
