Sunbury's Revitalization Inc.

HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who came out and supported us this past weekend at our sale!

We had so much fun hearing stories about the former church and people helping us identify what items were and what they were used for.

Two stories really stood out to us;

First, Ruth Chrismer stopped by and was telling us all about the church from the very beginning. She was born the year the church opened in 1929 and was a part of the congregation until they merged in the 2000's. She played the piano and took a tour and was so delighted to be back here for a little bit.

The second amazing thing that happened was that we started going through the books and realized some had names in them so on a whim I decided to take photos of the names and post them in our Yard Sale Event discussion on Facebook to see if anyone knew any of the names and see if we could reunite them with their families. A few hours after posting one book cover a gentleman came in and said his daughter sent him a screenshot of the one book and it turned out it was his family's! He came in and told us about his family and was very appreciative that we were able to get it back to him.

It was a great weekend!

Ruth is such a wonderful lady. Miss her down here on Bainbridge St.

Ruth is such a lovely person. I'm glad she was able to tour her old church and perhaps purchase some treasures.

My aunt Ruthie...a priceless treasure!!

Ruth's family were neighbors on S. Second St. in the 1940's, 1950's, when I was a child.
