Staunton/Augusta County's

Largest Children's Consignment Sale

In August 2000, St Paul’s United Methodist Church began serving our community with the Lil Lamb's Closet Sale.   This Consignment Sale is not a fundraiser, it is a ministry within our church, our community and many vital areas within the Staunton/Augusta county area, including several child-oriented ministries.

How Does This Ministry Work?

People in the community, as well as church families, are asked to bring children’s clothing, maternity clothing and/or nursery items to be sold at the Lil’ Lambs Closet Sale, on consignment.  All items will be priced and hung on hangers by the sellers, the clothing must be in very good condition, free of stains and tears and all items must be inspected and approved before being accepted into this sale.  The seller sets their own price  and will receive 70% of their selling price.  The remaining 30% (tax deductible)  will be given to area children's organizations as well as a portion being given to St Paul's  children's programs to offset the expenses associated with each sale.

There are three sales each year.  The first sale during the first weekend in August, the second during the first weekend in April and the toy sale, the first weekend in November. The August sale features Fall/Winter clothing and the March sale sells Spring/Summer clothing.

We rely heavily on volunteers to make this ministry such a success.  To entice the community and church members to volunteer their time, we do offer early shopping privileges to those who volunteer their time. We have many shifts to choose from the week of the sale beginning on Monday and ending on Saturday. Each shift is 3.5 hours.  The first half hour is for training and a chance for you to get something to eat before starting your shift.  

Friday and Saturday the sale is open to the public.  Sellers have the option of reducing their items on Saturday.  If they choose to reduce their clothing,  all items marked with a slash mark on Saturday will sell at half of the original price.
