Set #2626 - Hartford, CT

Dear Gabriel Ministries,

Thanks you so much for your ministry. We really didn't think anyone would respond as quick but the phone call never stopped ringing. Thank you for the opportunity to share with so many others who are doing ministry. We all at Greater Faith Ministries send our thanks and love for the faithful friendship and business. What would we have done without the ministry! May God continue to use the ministry for his service.

Set 2616  - Lombard, IL

 

Dear Teresa...

Thanks for the use of your site.  We were fortunate to have been contacted by a church quite quickly, and they are picking up the pews tomorrow.  I'm not sure how to remove our posting on the website.  Please provide instructions, or if it's easier, go ahead and remove it.  We're glad to see an inner-city church be able to take advantage of our good pews.  Your website ministry is a real blessing--press on!

I just had to write you a note to say thank you so much for your website.  Because of your ministry, we have been blessed with 18 beautiful pews from the Free Pews section of your site.  Incredible blessings from this wonderful church, obedient to the leading of the Lord, provided for our new church plant.  We cannot thank you enough.  Not only have we received this wonderful material blessing, but also the blessing of meeting and getting to know the wonderful Pastor's from the giving church.  Keep up this wonderful ministry, as we have been poured into, we will pour out, and its because of your service to the Lord.

Dear Gabriel Ministries,

 

When we went to sell our pews, people asked me how I was going to sell them.  I told them I listed them on the web at www.usedpews.org.   They laughed at that the notion that someone would ever even look there.  However, in early fall, we listed our pews through your service, and they all sold within a couple of weeks.  Then everyone laughed a laugh of joy.  It was a fantastic tool for us and we are really grateful for the ministry niche you have discovered and provide.

 

Now, we have listed another piece for sale, and within a week we received a contact and a resulting sale!!

 

Thanks so much for your ministry presence and for facilitating such a great networking tool.  Trust me, I talk about Gabriel ministries and used church furniture.

 

God Bless,

Dear Gabriel Ministries,

    Thank you so very much for your service in dealing with Church furniture.  We got an excellent response and could have sold the pews several times.  They were delivered this last week so you can mark them sold.  Again thank you for helping our Center in getting our pews sold.  May God continue to bless you for your service.

Set # 2440

Hello Friends,

This message is to let you know that, thanks to your ministry, we have sold our pews.  Rev. Scott told me that you had a 94% success rate with your listings, and I think that statistic must be too low!  We listed our pews on a Friday, made a deal on Tuesday, and the buyer drove from 3 states away to pick them up on Sunday.  What a mighty God we serve!  Our church can't thank you enough for being there for us to put us in contact with people we otherwise would have never had the resources to connect with.  You have truly been a blessing to our ministry and we can only pray that the modest donation we gave you is a seed into the tremendous growth and prosperity you are destined for.  Thank you again for your help!

Hi, Can you remove the rest of our items now as we have sold everything. Your site was a blessing for our church I don't know what we would have done without it. GOD bless you for your work and devotion to all that use your site. Thanks again.

Set # 2411

What a blessing your ministry has been to our church....Durkeetown Baptist
Church.
You can list our chairs as sold in only 1 day to a honorable, blessed, and
generous pastor from
Brooklyn, NY!
He has been so kind and radiates God's goodness.
We were so blessed that we (My husband) donated the delivery of these chairs
by driving 4 hr, one way, to deliver them in person.
God is good!
Thank you!

God bless you.

Good evening,

Thank you for the wonderful service that you are providing.  We began receiving inquiries the second day, and the first caller is sending someone to see the condition of the pews and bring a check if he finds they are what was advertised.  This is making the whole process very simple.

 

Thank you very sincerely,

Barbara Davis


Greetings to you in the name our LORD. We {The Burning Bush Evangelistic Ministries} just wanted to express our gratitude to your organization.  We are currently small in number with big dreams.  A few years back we purchased an old historic church building needing lots of repair. The pews we were using were considerably worn and embarrassing. After discovering your site and reviewing it periodically, we eventually found pews in Chillicothe.

   Without delay we e-mailed Pastor Case and arranged to pick them up. Everything went as clock work. The pews have found a new home in our sanctuary, and seem to be as content as we are. We bid The LORDS blessing upon you.

Set # 2121   Shelby Township, MI

Our church (St. Thomas Community Presbyterian Church) did sell our Sanctuary chairs through your site.  The purchasing church is also in Michigan (close by) and their board members visited our church and approved the sale (we have a deposit in hand) this morning.  Our main concern was to find a church that could use these chairs as they have a lot of life in them still.  Your site was a great help in doing this. Thanks.  Also please remove our ad.  Regards Tim Card  (586) 781-3862.  Email


Sirs:  We have sold all of our pews located at the First Baptist Church of Raytown, MO.  Set #2094.   We had two sets.  One set sold within one week and the other the following week.  Please remove our ad completely from your website.  Thank you so much.

Thank you for listing our pews on line. I had listed them under Compass Community Church in Houston on Old Louetta Rd. These have already been picked up this past weekend so you can remove our listing from the site.  As a testimonial to your service, the ad hit the website on TH afternoon and I had a call within an hour or two.  Also received two more calls on Fri of congregations wanting the pews.  It is apparent that your service is greatly needed.  Thanks again for being available to provide such a valuable service.  If you could reply that you received this so we can be assured that we will be removed from your site.
