Garage sale- 1st Sat of each month
If you have not had the experience of attending a garage sale hosted by the FUMC of Port Isabel, you have missed something. Of course, to get the full flavor of this happening, one must arrive at the parking lot no later than 7:55 a.m. Only then will you witness the large number of people who anticipate the opening of the doors at 8:00 a.m.
Our customers are serious shoppers, many of whom shop with us every month. They come in all sizes. They come alone, with a husband, boyfriend, with their children, or with both. They come looking for items they need at bargain prices. Some come looking for a certain .nice thing. that they recognize right away, priced so reasonably they can allow themselves to be frivolous.
Doesn't it make you feel good to know that a table in PI has a set of stemware the lady could never imagine having? A teenager has an Old Navy tee shirt and maybe a pair of Guess jeans? Or, a man now has decent clothes to wear to work?
This is our outreach. It is one that helps a lot of people meet the very basic needs of life. Of course, not all of our customers are indigent. We have many loyal people who come looking for a good bargain. Let me tell you, we have good bargains at this garage sale. So, you are invited to stop by on the first Saturday in May to experience our sale. (But please, remember to come early!)
