Fall Re-Opening Dates and Highlights
The Thrifts and Gifts Team is getting the shop ready for our fall opening the weekend of September 5th and 6th. That weekend we will offer a Buy 1 Get Second Item Half Off Sale for all items throughout the store.
Donations
We are now accepting donations of gently used and clean donations for us to sell in the shop - which could include linens, kitchenware, table dressings, everyday decorations, jewelry, men's & women's clothing, outerwear and footwear. Please donate items that you would re-gift to a family member or that you would buy for yourself at a thrift store. You may bring your donations to the church Fellowship Hall on Thursday mornings between 9 and noon OR during our open shopping hours (Fridays and Saturdays 10AM - 3PM starting September 5th & 6th).

Please join us in the Fellowship Hall for the return of our Third Wednesday Supper Social. We will feature Italian cuisine including salad, bread, lasagna, vegan manicotti, baked zita and ice cream sundaes.
All are welcome. Donations are not required but greatly appreciated. Contributions will go to supply the kitchen. If you have any questions please contact Heather, Todd, Frank or Dawn.
Refreshment volunteers are needed after worship to prepare juice and coffee (instructions near the coffee machine) and provide a light snack such as cookies, carrots, or crackers.

A box is in the lower level entry to collect used prescription bottles for a local veterinarian who will recycle them to use for pet medicines. The labels MUST be removed before placing in the box. If you have questions, please call Elizabeth Endicott, (507) 440-4934.
We are collecting toiletry samples for the Community Kitchen. If you have any of those toiletries that you collect from hotel visits that you never get around to using, please feel free to drop them off in the basket in Fellowship Hall.
