Munchkin Market

These are pictures before the big night last night! The sale continues today and Saturday, and we'll have the church all put back together for services on Sunday like nothing ever happened!

It is amazing to see how this sale has grown. I don't know exactly, but I think it's been around for 10 years or so. It started out small and now we use most of the rooms in the church to display the sale items. The job of Munchkin Market coordinator has no doubt become a very big job!
Moms in our area consign their kid stuff for the sale, and MOPS keeps 30-50% of the proceeds. This allows us to keep our program costs lower for the moms, pay teachers to watch all the kiddos during our meetings, train our leaders to serve as best they can, among other things. And it keeps our kids in clothes and toys and gear for a fraction of the price of new!
