WFCM and the Pender ReGift Thrift Store

regift-WFCM

One partnership that we are particularly proud of is that with Western Fairfax Christian Ministries. When evaluating the relationship as an entrepreneur, it is very unusual that WCFM and Pender ReGift Thrift Store should be partners. We essentially have the same business, in the same location, occupying the same marketplace. We are clearly competitors! PRTS’ competitive advantages are that we sanitize more upholstered furniture than WCFM, and we have a stronger recycling stream for our discarded goods. WCFM has a better location.

But both ministries attribute their service to God, and in this relationship our partnership becomes not only possible, but flourishes. Clients they cannot serve are referred to us, and vice versa. We’ll trade a couch for a bed. In an recent pickup, Martin (PRTS) provided the truck and Tom (WCFM) provided the labor: The orgs split the booty.

regift-wfcm-mapForced out of their location because the landlord could get more money from a different tenant, WCFM has recently split and relocated both their food pantry and their thrift store. The thrift store is now located at 13939 Metrotech Drive, Chantilly, VA 20151. Some of their donors still have not found them at their new location, but because we’re partners, we are happy to tell them how to get there.

Thank You!

thank-you

 

  • A HUGE thank you to everyone who made the boutique and flea market a huge success!Whether you did it by volunteering as a cashier, helping with set up, donating items, inviting others to shop or did some shopping yourself, because of your efforts, the boutique alone brought in over $8,000 that will go toward the UMW budget to support missions, both inside and outside the church as well as other Pender activities!  In addition, the flea market brought in over $5,000 for the UMM budget and also as an outreach opportunity as we financially supported several men from West Virginia with jobs for the week.  God is Great!
  • Rev Kev and JC Reigns would like to thank ALL of the children and adults who volunteered to help make An Evening to Remember such an enjoyable and memorable event.  5 bus loads of residents from 5 different nursing homes in the area attended and they all had an amazing time singing, clapping, laughing and dancing.
  • BIG THANK YOU from Carol Wilson to all who contributed their time and efforts to help make the Mother-Daughter Tea a success!!  The UMW also wants to express our appreciation for the music by JC Reigns which added so much!
