September 2024, Vol. 6
As we move into a new season, things will begin to change around Grace Village Thrift. We are already beginning to see lots of Fall items and in the blink of an eye we will be seeing lots of Christmas items. It happens fast.
One thing that has not happened fast for PGO has been moving toward a much-needed new Food Pantry building. We purchased our property on Route 30 in 2014 and have been working ever since to achieve this dream. If you have been with us long enough, you have heard, and maybe more than once, that we were very close, and we were…only to be delayed over and over due to the rising costs of construction. As you will read further into our newsletter, it has finally happened. We have a signed contract with a builder! This dream will now be a reality in the Spring/Summer of 2025. Our timing has finally aligned with God’s timing.
Now comes all the hard work! An anonymous donor has jumpstarted the giving by donating $120,000 to our existing Building Fund. As the Board of Directors enters our formal Capital Campaign, there will be many ways for you to be involved. It will be both an exciting and labor-intensive time. More information will follow.
My prayer is that amidst all the exciting new changes of this season, that we will all make a concerted effort to slow down a bit and reflect on how far we have come as an organization. If you are reading this newsletter, you have contributed to that in some way. We appreciate you!
