STARS Resale Shop Manager

Since 2009 STARS Resale Shop opened its doors at our location on College Avenue and has provided a place to donate and purchase used merchandise. We began sending our net proceeds to STARS Family Services about a year after we opened. The resale shop offers opportunities for participants in the church’s STARS Disability Ministry to work in the store. They play a significant role in our daily business. We’re thankful for the head of the job coaching staff, Tonya Dring, for expanding the program this year so that we have STARS workers everyday Monday through Friday.

It’s a privilege to work alongside the volunteers, who give freely of their time and energy, as well as the STARS, their job coaches, and paid staff who all work with the goal of contributing to this ministry. Each individual brings his or her own unique skill set and personality to make STARS Resale Shop a special place.

Due to the COVID-19 virus, STARS Resale Shop has been closed. We miss seeing many of you and look forward to serving you once again when the store reopens. Your participation in this ministry is crucial—whether by donating quality items, clothing or furniture, volunteering or coming to shop in the store. Together we look forward to another great year of ministry and impacting our community!
