When we emphasize quality, we’re not necessarily seeking “fancy” things, but interesting items. in excellent condition that will appeal to people at church who enjoy treasure-hunting for a good cause

Volunteers will be ready to receive donations before, between, and after services. Bring items to the Foyer, or to the circle drive on Preston and we’ll unload them from your car.
