Why visit the shop
Walking through the door is the best way to meet us. The racks change every week, and when you shop with us, all profits go directly to support ministries that help those in need and share the good news of Jesus Christ at home and around the world.

A friendly stop
We’re a small shop, not a big box. Expect a hello, a little help if you want it, and room to browse.
A little about us
Mission
Steward what we already have
The Lord’s Closet offers quality secondhand goods at fair prices, welcomes every neighbor, and exists to serve members of our local community and to raise funds for ministries that help those in need and share the Gospel.
Short history
Different locations, consistent vision
The ministry began as an extension of The Lord’s Cupboard. However, when the incoming donations exceeded the capacity of that ministry location, founder Pat Gwinn, with the help of her husband Buddy, established The Lord’s Closet in a separate building. The location has changed over the years, but the vision has stayed the same - helping our neighbors and the broader community.
Where the profits go
Serving others
After operating costs, proceeds help with local benevolence—clothing, household needs, and support for families in hard seasons. Proceeds also support ministries that help those in need and share the Gospel.
Your donations help change the world
Gently used clothing and household items keep our racks full, the shop running, and the mission moving.
- Clean, wearable clothes and shoes
- Housewares in good working order
- Monetary gifts, anytime
Stay in the loop
