Want to participate in the Joe’s Addiction Community
in the little city of Valley Brook? Here's how:
Baristas: If you'd like to learn how to pull espresso shots, make an expert latte, put together a tasty croissant sandwich and hang out with people who are learning to follow the Way of Jesus, we'll train you!
Skills: If you have skills that you would like to share (from fixing things, to plumbing, to accounting, to house cleaning, to you name it), we can probably put you to work alongside someone who both needs the help and wants to learn.
FOOD!! Nonperishable food items always needed! We also welcome any meals you want to bring by to feed the community. We hope that you'll stay, eat with us and get to know us!
Household items for our Free Store (Our space is too small for furniture, but anything else that you would give to the Good Will—not junk). See the description of the Free Store below.
Lowes Gift Cards (we may have the skill to repair stuff, but not the money to buy the supplies.)
Amazon list of needs we currently have.
We had no way to connect the stuff with the specific person who needed it, so a pile began to grow in the corner. One day one of our community leaders at Joe’s asked the question, “What are we gonna do with all that stuff?” and we started to dream. Someone said, “We could open a thrift store.” Then another said, “But didn’t Jesus say, “Give to those who ask of you, not sell to those who ask of you?” And The Free Store was born. More than a “handout” to poor people, The Free Store has become a form of recycling for the people who live in the Valley Brook neighborhood—a way to defect from the capitalistic economic system that oppresses both the rich and the poor. People bring in things they don’t need anymore and exchange them for the things they do need. The Free Store has become a platform for us to SHARE—a lesson we learned in kindergarten!
“Unless you become like little children, you cannot enter the Kingdom of God.”
