trash2treasure
Our annual Trash 2 Treasure sale that fills the entire church (and a large tent outside) began in 1996. The sale includes furniture, collectibles, Christmas/holiday items, toys and games, books, crafts, decor items, kitchen/household goods, tools, children’s clothing, and more. Trash2Treasure is held every year on the first Friday and Saturday in August.
The proceeds from the 2022 sale totaled over $35,000, making it the largest and most successful sale in its history. All funds from the sale benefit local and international missions. The proceeds supported the following missions: Youth 4 Christ, Youth With A Mission (YWAM), Bed Brigade, Open Shelter, Helping Hands Medical Equipment Ministry, Lifeline Christian Mission, Pickerington Area Food Pantry, and others.
