First Presbyterian Church of Lake Forest to Host Fall Rummage Sale, Sept. 27

LAKE FOREST, Ill. - Sept. 10, 2014 - PRLog -- First Presbyterian Church of Lake Forest will be hosting its Fall Rummage Sale full of seasonal and timeless goods from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sept. 27 at 700 N Sheridan Road in Lake Forest. The Rummage Sale is open to all and will be held in the lower level of the church building.

Shoppers can expect to find clean, usable items from winter outerwear and accessories; men’s, women’s and children’s clothes; to furniture, toys, linens, home décor, winter sports equipment, shoes and boots.

“The Rummage Sale is a great fellowship opportunity for members of the church and community,” says Rev. Dr. Christine Chakoian, First Presbyterian Church of Lake Forest’s senior pastor. “It also helps fund our mission partners while serving families in need.”

Since its inception in 1950, this event has contributed more than $5 million to First Presbyterian’s Mission program. Mission provides grants to local and global partner organizations that help nurture faith development, pastoral care and church leadership support; empower youth and adults to achieve their potential through high-quality education; and/or meet the immediate needs of impoverished families while pursuing long-term solutions to address the effects of poverty.

On the day of the sale, shoppers can park in the Lake Forest city lots, at the Lake Forest Metra station parking lot and on the street, unless otherwise marked as a “no parking” zone. Cash, check and credit cards (American Express, Visa or Mastercard) are accepted at the sale.

First Presbyterian is no longer collecting donations for the fall Rummage Sale but welcome those who would like to volunteer. For more information about volunteering, contact the church at (847) 234-6250 or sign up at http://www.firstchurchlf.org/rummagevolunteer.
