Our “Secondhand Rose” sale

Some folks (our rector, for example) seem quite incapable of throwing things out. The rector not only still owns the suit he was married in, but the sports jacket and slacks he wore on his honeymoon. In fact, his closets would fill a fashion museum with garments stretching back through the “Swinging London” era of the 1960s to the schoolboy styles of the 1950s.

We are betting that he is not the only one in the parish with closets and wardrobes crammed to overflowing with gently used clothing—some vintage; some nearly new—that desperately needs a new home.

Thus we decided that nothing could be more timely than a “Secondhand Rose Sale.” We are looking for gently used clothing, clean and in good condition, from periods ranging from medieval to modern times. We would also be grateful for shoes, accessories, jewelry and purses in good condition. Curtains and drapes would also be welcome. The sales is for the benefit of a Sunday School playground.

The sale dates are: Friday, October 19th, from Noon to 8.00 PM; and Saturday, October 20th, from 10.00 AM to 2.00 PM. we would also appreciate volunteers to help run the sale. For more information, contact Martha Miller at eieiowe@comcast.net or call the parish office: 410-560-6776.
