We had our annual rummage sale yesterday. Several friends came to help out and the day was successful. Those who staffed the event were happy and those who came were happy. The line of eager rummage salers reached out to the curb of the parking lot before 8:00 when we opened. And it was such a beautiful day for a sale! Lots of sunshine and birdsong.
Rummage sales are important these days, not only for us who depend on this income, but also for those folks who make their way from sale to sale each Saturday. It is a good way to re-cycle and to keep stuff out of landfills. It is also a good way to clear the house of unnecessary things and to offer them to those who might be in need at a nice, low price. I figure if I haven't picked something up in a year or so, it really belongs to someone else. Our annual rummage sale helps me to pass these things on to others.
Thanks, Sister Damaris, for another great event!

As exciting as it is to find items in a rummage sale, it's really freeing to see our own pile ready to be enjoyed by someone else. Now more than ever it's a great time to free up space and share with those who could use the 'treasures!'
