Buy one Give one Free!

Buy one Give one Free!

We are familiar with the slogan, “Buy one get one free!” We are so used to get more stuff for ourselves. We expect that from the businesses and stores. However, our church young adult group challenges that culture and shouts, “Buy one, Give one free!”

They contacted homeless shelters in Concord and found out that they need men’s belts and underwear. So, they ask our church members to donate those items, saying, “When you buy one for you, buy one extra and give it to the homeless shelter.”

The Christmas spirit is sharing. God shared divine life with humans. Now, we want to follow that step and share what we have. So, this year, make this also your slogan: “Buy one, give one free!” whatever you buy, buy one and give one free to others. If you feel like to be a part of our young adult group, buy your underwear and give one free! (Send your donation to Concord UMC, 1645 West Street, Concord, CA 95051)
