History

The Thrift Store Christian Mission Thrift Store in Grove, Oklahoma, began as a direct response to a critical need within the community.

Established in 1988, the mission’s origins lie in the outpouring of support following the devastating 1988 floods that ravaged southeastern Oklahoma.

Recognizing the widespread displacement and hardship, a group of concerned individuals, primarily from the Grove First Baptist Church, mobilized to provide immediate assistance to those affected.

Initially, the operation started as a collection and distribution center for donated goods – clothing, household items, and food – to help flood victims rebuild their lives.

This evolved into a sustainable thrift store, driven by the core mission of supporting the less fortunate within the Grove area and surrounding communities.

The store is deeply rooted in faith-based principles, embodying a commitment to compassion and service.

It operates entirely on donations and the dedication of volunteers, ensuring that nearly every dollar earned directly benefits local families facing economic challenges, offering resources and a pathway to self-sufficiency.

The store's longevity is a testament to the community’s unwavering support and the enduring impact of its charitable work.
