The Rolling Hills Ministry thrift store such as this location in Ruston are in need of donations.

Rolling Hills Ministries issues immediate call for thrift store donations

Abernathy said the immediate needs include clothes, furniture, shoes and linens for its stores in Aracdia, Bossier City and Ruston.
