Thank you for visiting AMAZING GRACE. This store has been a TRUE blessing from God. He laid this vision on my heart in August of 2010. After much prayer with the congregation of the 3P Arena Cowboy Church, I talked to Mr. A.W. Zajicek who owns the old general store in Buckholts, which the fire department had been using until they were given a new building. We looked at the building to make sure that this was something I wanted to proceed with. I didn’t see all the work that needed to be done, I just saw what an awesome and huge building this was. I was ready to start work on it the first day. It was a major undertaking, but I knew that God was in control and it would all come together. This building was built in the early 1920's, we were told by several people that we should bulldoze this place and start over but we stayed true to our Vision and are pleased to be here and serve you.
We put a TON of labor hours into this building to make it a special place to shop. We worked many, many hot sweaty and cold freezing days in here. We are proud to have a place like this in Buckholts. We opened in February 2011 I worked a full time job while working 2 days a week at the shop. We did not have any air-conditioning/heating or water which means no restroom!! There were days in the summer that it would reach over 100 degrees and the winter down to 30 degrees, it was brutal some days, but I kept on working. In 7 years we were able to give over $40,000 to our community. The majority went to help school kids with backpacks and all the school supplies, various groups and organizations in the school, the BVFD, the Youth center in town, the Lions club, the BBA, we even helped the school purchase a learning program that wasn't in the budget. Update: In October of 2015 God has impressed upon my heart to build a NEW shop. We are praying daily for God's hand in all of it. I believed the bible verse Matthew 25:23 as God's answer "His Master replied. 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!' We were blessed with numerous financial donations from October of 2015 to October 2017 God is working mighty through a lot of people and I am so full of joy and Blessed beyond measure to be a part of this. We truly give God all the glory for what he is doing in our little town of Buckholts as this is a huge undertaking that I am believing in Faith that God will provide everything that we are going to need to get it completed. PRAISING GOD...… We completed our new building and opened for business on October 24th 2017, it took 2 years to complete and God's hand was in every part of it. I left my secure full time job with insurance and retirement to make this my full time job. Following my obedience to God's calling.
We can never out give God, when He sees you doing your part developing what He has given you, then He will do his part and open doors that no man can shut. Our new Thrift Shop is proof of that! If you feel that God has pressed upon your heart to help us please email me at agrace3P@hotmail.com or call me at 254-721-0055 or if you have any questions or want to help in anyway not only will you be blessing me, but you will be getting a blessing in return for God's word tells us in Acts 20:35 In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ” Thank you for taking time to read this and May God Bless you!!!!
