📢 Important Announcement from STUFF / Resurrection Street Ministry
Dear friends and neighbors,
We are deeply sadden to announce that, as of today at 5:00 PM, STUFF / RSM is officially closed. Our final two days will be dedicated to cleaning out the space and wrapping up.
This decision came abruptly — our landlord gave us only 30 days’ notice — and it has been a shock to everyone involved. We are heartbroken over ending this chapter, but also profoundly grateful for the years of connection, service, and community you’ve all helped create.
We don’t yet know where or when we might reopen. We are actively searching for a new location and hope to resume operations when possible. We promise to keep you updated as news develops.
From the bottom of our hearts: thank you. Thank you for shopping, donating, volunteering, advocating, and believing in what STUFF / RSM stands for. We couldn’t have done any of this without you. 💜
If you or someone you know is in need of food assistance in the meantime, here are some local organizations that are open and serving the community:
