History

Established in 1961.

The St. Christopher’s Thrift Shop has been a tradition for over 50 years. It was started by a group of young St. Christopher’s mothers with their leftovers from a church garage sale. In 1980, the thrift shop moved to its own building on the church campus — entirely paid for by proceeds from the thrift shop. The young mothers became grandmothers but continued the work. By 1986, the Thrift Shop had provided over one million dollars to outreach projects in the local community. A few years ago, the Shop joined with Houston Hospice. The resulting growth has made the shop even better! The interior was completely refurbished in 2008, to create more space. In addition to providing great bargain shopping and community outreach funds, the thrift shop provides community service opportunities to public and private schools, and Harris County.
