Permanent Yard Sale

The permanent yard sale at our 1517 N Hwy 174 Rio Vista location has expanded beyond our wildest hopes and dreams.

We have been blessed by very generous donors of furniture, clothes, tools, appliances, etc and have found a strong demand from young start up families in need for quality economical furniture and other household needs. In addition, we daily have people coming by to share in testimonials their journey to and with Christ… oftentimes, as we all do, they come to simply seek encouragement and spiritual support.

The photo above illustrates another blessing we have received…. We now have a sizable repeat clientele who work on the honor system….several of them will come by during the week at a time we are not there or have closed…. If they see something they like, they will clip the money to the front door and leave.

Others come by and inform me that they are making charity runs to the Rio Grande area to donate clothing, shoes, etc to families in dire need there. We donate many bags of such items each week to such Good Samaritans and they have become regulars as well.

Even those from out of state just passing through ( we have had them from Oregon, North Dakota, Minnesota, etc ) do drop by and are pleased to see what our ministry is doing for children. Even if they do not buy anything, they often will make very generous donations and leave hopefully with a parting good impression of what true Texas Christian behavior is all about.
