GREAT WEEK!!

📰💚 THE SHOP THRIFT STORE VOLUNTEER NEWSLETTER 💚📰

Hey Team! 👋

What an incredible week it’s been at The Shop Thrift Store! 🎄✨

First off — can we give a big round of applause 👏 to everyone who made last week’s Early Christmas Sale & Block Party such a success? 🎅🎁

🌟 M.K. knocked it out of the park with the merchandising — it truly made the event sparkle, and your hard work created four amazing days of community joy (even if we’re all a bit exhausted now 😅). The store looked magical, and our guests felt the love. THANK YOU! ❤️

🧥👖 THIS WEEK’S SALE:

🎃👕 ALL CLOTHING JUST $3! 👖🧥

That’s right — every single piece of clothing, from jeans and slacks to shirts and sweaters, is just three bucks! 💥

This sale is bringing in a ton of clothing traffic, so if you can lend a hand, Peggy could really use help in sorting donations and clothing this week. Even a few hours makes a huge difference! 🧺👕

Each person who walks through our doors deserves the same love, patience, and care we would show to the Lord Himself. 💚

Our mission isn’t just to sell things — it’s to deliver the Fruit of the Spirit 🍎 each day through kindness, joy, peace, patience, and love.

Your smiles, your service, and your hearts are what make The Shop truly special. 🌟
