'As each one has received a gift, we use it to serve one another as good stewards of God's varied Grace'     
Peter 4:10

The Good News Shop

Spring Break is right around the corner... Do you need a new sun hat? The Good News Shop has got you covered! Our hats by San Diego Hat Company are made from material that has been given the highest rating of UV protection available! They are lightweight and packable. Young moms to grandmoms will be "stylin" and "smilin".

Go Green for ST. PATRICK'S DAY! Come by the Good News Shop and see our selection of items that are made from recycled materials. Soy Candles, twig crosses, flipflop doormats and Green Bibles to name a few. Re-Use, Re-cycyle, Reduce!

 


 

Have we got a treat for you!

Stop in and check out the handmade, gourmet treats from Sister Schubert’s daughter Chrissie Schubert. The Good News Shop is thrilled to offer Schubert’s gorgeous monogrammed cross cookies, perfect for commemorating upcoming special occasions. These darling cookies are a sweet way to honor a christening, baptism or wedding. Monogrammed cookies must be pre-ordered at least 10 days in advance through The Good News Shop, to allow time for baking, decorating and shipping. All crosses are white, with monograms in a variety of colors and no minimum order. Southern Living said it best … “these cookies taste as great as they look.” The Good News Shop also carries additional cookie designs for the last-minute shopper.

 

 

 


 

The Good News Shop is a mission of the Episcopal Church Women of Christ Church. As a private, nonprofit organization, the Shop donates all of its sales proceeds toward grants to worthy nonprofit initiatives focused on the needs of women and children in the local community and abroad. The Good News Shop's main objective is to maximize profits in order to fund these initiatives. In its 34-year-old history, it has donated $500,000 to outreach programs. The Shop also serves as a ministry devoted to building community and fellowship and providing resources for programs at Christ Church.

Nestled inside Christ Church, The Good News Shop is adorned with ideal gifts for Christmas, birthdays and special events including Baptisms, Confirmation and graduations. We offer free gift wrapping, so this really is the place for your one-stop shopping! The most rewarding attribute about this shop is that 100% of proceeds go back into the community, which is so needed in today's economy. We proudly feature books, cards, candles, lotions, jewelry, handbags, hats, decorative pillows, baby and children gifts, tabletop accessories, men's accessories, crosses, paper products, linens, food items and kitchen accessories. Please remember us first when you shop for that next gift.

Thank you,
The Good News Shop
