IT’S TIME TO START THINKING ABOUT THE 2025 GARAGE SALE!!
It takes a lot of donations to make the garage sale a huge success so, if you’re wondering what to do with all the old stuff now that you got all new stuff for Christmas you can save it for the church garage sale. Donations will start April 27, 2025. Please do not drop off anything to the church until that day as there is nowhere to store it. More information will come later. If you have any questions, you can contact:
Sarah Smith – sejackson04@yahoo.com
Dorsanne Stark – jdsjes04@gmail.com
Thank you!
