Store hours are Tuesday`s 5-6pm and Sunday`s noon-2pm.
 
We've got some good ones and if the time has come for you to part with some good books, please bring them in or contact Bob Burtt for pickup.
Stone Church Bookstore News
The Stone Church Bookstore had a very successful sale in conjunction with the yard sale April 20. We were able to deposit almost $400 from the sale, bringing our sales for the year to well over $1,000. That compares to $2,250 for the entire year last year and about $1,700 for the previous year. With some luck and continued support we should be able to show an increase over last year.
 
Thanks to Betty Ann Madill and Jo-Anne Hennig for all of the work they did in preparing for the sale, to Laurie Schmidt for help with Saturday sales and Wanda and Nowell Brain for their generous donation from their own sales. Thanks also to all of the people who bought or donated books.

Buy, Save & Donate at the same time!
We have an exciting new way for you to support Trillium this growing season. We’re partnering with BigYellowBag®, a local company that delivers high quality garden products in a neat, clean bag straight to your door. As we are all getting into the planning for our spring/summer gardens, BigYellowBag has offered to donate $10 to us for each bag purchased using our unique code below (this code is only valid for donations to come to our group). As an added bonus, YOU save $5 on your BigYellowBag purchase! So, if you’re in need of soil or mulch to get your lawn and garden going this year, keep us in your thoughts. Our code is TRILLIUM24
Turkey Pies & Beef Pies For Sale
Turkey pies and beef pies are available for sale! The pies are $6 each. Contact Helen, Joan or the church office to get yours.

All proceeds go towards the upkeep of Trillium and/or outreach projects.
Outside Pantry/Free Library
On your next grocery trip please consider picking up some items for those less fortunate. You can put the items in the pantry by the elevator.

We put out 3 food items every day and this helps sustain those in need. These items go quickly so your help is always appreciated.

Thank you for your continued support.
