Priceless Yard Sale

Our children began to gather things from around the house to sell at a garage sale to help raise money to bring their little sister home. They also began to ask people to donate items to the sale. We were touched by their efforts and have felt led to participate too. We are gathering things around our house to sell and are wondering if you might have a few things to donate too?

Here are a few things you might want to know:
1. We are working towards bringing home the priceless treasure who is our daughter. Because that is the goal, we will not be pricing any item in the sale, but are asking shoppers to spend what they feel led to spend.

2. We are reserving the right to refuse to sell to low-ball offers. We will invite those people to return at the end of the sale on Saturday and if the item remains, they may have it for their original offer.

3. The sale will be held June 25-26 from 8 am- 4 pm.

4. Any donated items that remain after the sale will be donated either to New 2 You or the the Goodwill.

5. We have made space in our garage to store donated items as we prepare for this sale. If you would like to share something, please let us know and we can make arrangements to get the items. We can pick up some local items and would be grateful to be available for you to drop things off.

6. We will also be having a bake sale/lemonade stand during the yard sale.

7. If you have a folding table we could borrow for the sale to keep things off of the ground, that would be helpful. The tables will be returned after the sale (of course).

8. We already have several families who have volunteered items for the sale. We will be selling knick-knacks, clothing, baby items, and even some furniture. Anything will be helpful.

Thank you for your willingness to help bring our little girl home. We are praying this sale will be a huge help towards meeting the goal of being able to bring her home without incurrin debt. We appreciate your continued prayers as we go through this process.
