January 20, 2023 - In early January we wrote about the expansion of our downtown Jackson retail operation. We have signed the lease and are looking for some volunteers over the next couple of weeks to help with upgrading the new space and the transition of the old space. We are looking for some folks to help us out with some painting, hanging wall fixtures, moving stored fixtures (truck needed for this), and then transferring merchandise to the new location.
By the way, many of the fixtures we have were from the Things Remembered Store next to our Ann Arbor location when they went out of business last week. (We moved them to a storage place in Jackson as we did not have the new space yet) – We were able to buy some and few and were given many more items. When God is moving, he provides for the needs – it looks like we will not have to spend very much for fixtures for the new space and they look good too! God is Good!
And all of these things need to be done while Diane and I are in Bulgaria tying up projects here. We have a plan in place but because we are away, and our current staff cannot make the transitions happen without help. We also do not want to wait until mid-February (when Diane and I return) to make the transitions happen. We need some local help. So If you would have a few hours to paint, clean the carpet, hang fixtures and move fixtures (in this order) please email me at [email protected] and we will let you know where we are and how you can be a blessing to us and the people we serve.
Pray about everything getting done when it needs to, that the new space will make an impact on people’s lives and that our time in Bulgaria will advance the kingdom as we encourage and meet with so many of the leaders here!
