LifeWay Christian Resources, the largest Christian retail chain in America, plans to close each of its 170 stores this year and shift its offerings entirely online.
The closings include LifeWay Christian in Hammons Hall at 1016 Union University Drive, where a closing sale will begin in early April and ends at the end of May.
Business hours are 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., Monday through Saturday.
According to a press release, the Southern Baptist affiliate announced in January initial plans to reduce its locations this year due to declining sales and financial pressures, but decided it wasn’t viable to keep any stores open past 2019.
LifeWay Christian has stores in 30 states.
