On Saturday FBC Norco was having a rummage sale to raise money for the mad amounts of people heading out into the ends of the earth to tell the good news, the news of the gospel. The amount of money needing to be raised is intense, but there is faith, and willing hearts, and there are also good ideas for fund raising. This rummage sale was one of those good ideas. Setting up for the rummage sale turned out to be quite a task. No one was expecting the large amount of items donated!! It was crazy!!! Everyone kept saying it over and over, "i never imagined we'd get so much stuff!" It really got everyone excited, but as the afternoon wore on, we started realizing how much there was to do!!! Thanks to the work of resourceful and organized people, everything was done and sorted and priced (we even managed to attract some early shoppers while set up was going on) and we had some very brave men holding down the fort through the night protecting our treasure cove. It really was fun working with my very cool church family on such a fun event. It was a lot of work but i'm sure we'll all agree that we are united in hearts and desires to set God on display through the extraordinary and mundane. Here are some pictures of all the stuff we had to sort through.
at first, this was incredibly overwhelming!!! so many clothes!!!! but soo cool!
sure enough, little sorted piles starting popping up.. it was on it's way!
everyone was trying to organize all the items to make it easier to look through
i thought it looked pretty dang cool!!
