Don't Call it a Comeback!

At the end of November, last year, NewSpring Thrift had no open stores.  From a business perspective, we were flatlining.

We had just lost the lease on our Clarksville store and moved out, and our Hopkinsville store was already closed.  It seemed like things were sort of coming to a close for us...at least that's how it appeared, based on what we could see with our eyes.

God, then, intervened, and did what He does best.  He saved us.  We moved the Clarksville store & its contents into a space in Springfield that the Lord providentially found for us and re-opened in seven days.

That's not all...there's more.

After that, we completely renovated a space two doors down from our old space in Hopkinsville for less than $1500.00.  We moved out of the old space and into the new one...and then there were two.

But wait...there's more.

We then found a new space in Clarksville that we remodelled for less than $500.00.  We put inventory in this new space and opened our third store. Now how much would you pay?  

But wait...there's even more.

We moved our corporate offices to an old two-story house in Pleasant View.  We refurbished the bottom, and opened our fourth store in three months.  We also merged with another African ministry, that turned out to be like a homecoming for all parties involved.  

Operators would be standing by...if we were selling this idea...But we're not.
We are merely prostrating ourselves and giving honor and praise where it is due.  He, God, King Jesus is worthy of all of our praise.  Even if he hadn't raised our ministry from the dead, He would still be just as worthy.

And now...we are committed to worship him with everything that we do and say...both here...and in Africa.
