The great remedy of modern times, which will influence the events of the world more

than all diplomatic endeavors and which has a greater effect on public life than all

organizational ones, is the rosary.

UNCLE AL’S THRIFT SHOP

In the beginning of February, Uncle Al’s will celebrate its 1st anniversary in the new location at 3275 Franklin Ave.

And we do plan to celebrate! Throughout the month, there will be special sales — some only lasting for a day or

two. Hmm… do you think Presidents’ Day or maybe Valentine’s Day will be an occasion for a different and

unusual sale? And there will be a raffle in February with opportunities to participate all month long. At the end of

the month, a drawing will take place for a special prize.

We are so blessed with so many lovely donations, and we are blessed with hard-working volunteers, but

sometimes it just gets ahead of us. Maybe you have considered helping, but are not able to commit to a definite

schedule. Could you spare a few hours now and then? We need some extra hands to sort and price items so we

can get them out for sale. If this appeals to you, please call or stop in at Uncle Al’s We are open Monday,

Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 10:00am to 4:00pm.

All proceeds benefit St. Joseph-Immaculate Conception Church.
