SEWING MACHINES BACK IN STOCK
NECCHI SEWING MACHINES
Since the NEW HOME line is sold out and unavailable at the present time, we have taken on the NECCHI sewing machine line. We also have (when available) some American Home models. All machines we sell we set up & sew in and they are guaranteed to work properly. The Pandemic has caused a huge spike in demand for new sewing machines with many people sewing masks. This has caused many machines to be sold out at the retail & wholesale levels.
Old reconditioned cast iron straight & zig zag sewing machines come and go. We hope to have some more machines for sale soon. And of course all our new and reconditioned machines are GUARANTEED.
And remember, WE TAKE TRADE-INS on new or reconditioned sewing machines (and vacuums)
REPAIRS AND REBUILTS
While vacuum cleaners are our main business, we do service a few hundred sewing machines and sergers every year, and sell a few new & used sewing machines. If we can't fix your machine, we don't charge, and of course our repairs are guaranteed for 90 days, so if we repair your machine and you take it home and have trouble, bring it back. We don't have the huge stock of sewing machines parts we have for vacuums, but we have many common parts and can do basic adjustments on most household machines. Electronic problems on computerized machines are beyond us. We also do not do industrial machines.
We have some modestly priced new machines, and sometimes have old cast metal used machines. We occasionally even have an antique Singer Featherweight for sale. All our sewing machines, new or used, are sewn in and guaranteed. return to homepage
A thought or two to REALLY LIVE by
The Bible says, "For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind". While we shouldn't be afraid of Covid19, we can act in love towards others by not doing things that might spread the disease(many healthy people can have Covid19 without manifesting symptoms). We can also pray for wisdom for our leaders. The Bible says we are to "lift up all those in authority". This was written at a time the Roman emperor was killing Christians, so whether or not one agrees with our leaders, we should pray for them to make the right decisions.
LIFE IS A LIFE OR DEATH MATTER
Jesus said "no one comes to the Father except through me" Many people say there are many ways to heaven, but that isn't what God's word says. Christ died for my & your sins, and rose from the dead so that we might have Eternal Life. Do you have eternal life yet? If you're not sure, this page from Campus Crusade for Christhttps://www.cru.org/how-to-know-god/would-you-like-to-know-god-personally.html may help.
My Church
I am a member of Living Word (the geodesic dome building by the interstate in St Joseph). We are blessed with a pastor who has the gift of teaching. Services are normally at 9:30 on Sunday morning. Due to the Corona virus, Wednesday night live services were cancelled, but have re-started on a limited basis(1st Wednesday of every month). On the other Wednesdays there is a new message from Pastor Mike available to watch on the internet (or later at your leisure). If you can't make it in person, Sunday's service is live streamed and also watchable later. Living Word also emphasizes children's ministry, so bring the kids and ask an usher which classroom your child will be in. They'll learn Bible stories and memorize scripture.
