Rummage Sale – May 2, 2020
Unfortunately, we have decided to officially CANCEL our 2020 Rummage Sale set for May 2 due to the spread of the Coronavirus/COVID-19 virus, for the health and safety of our community and our congregation. We understand how important this event is to our congregation and our community.
Each year, more than 20 departments including clothing, shoes, books, housewares, antiques, furniture, tools, sporting goods, electronics, baked goods, and others will fill the Interstate Center West Expo Building. A bake sale will be also be included.
Originally the Wesley Rummage Sale took place in the church building, however as the sale grew in size and scope, the sale was moved to The Sale Barn in 2000 and then to the Interstate Center in 2012 after the Sale Barn was torn down. The annual Rummage Sale dates back to the 1970’s. Held every spring, the sale is by far the largest community effort sponsored and managed solely by Wesley United Methodist, Bloomington.
Donations from church members, their family, friends, and neighbors are accepted during the week prior to the sale. Hundreds of volunteers put in more than 4,000 hours each year and brought in over $28,000 for Wesley activities and missions in 2019.

We hope to see you there!
