30 August 2007 -- NEW RECYCLING PROGRAM.
We have begun a new recycling program here at Victory in cooperation with Planet Green, Inc. Beginning this Sunday there will be a green box located in the foyer of the church where you can bring your used print cartridges and old cell phones for recycling. The items will be collected and then shipped periodically to Planet Green for recycling. Planet Green provides for the shipping and after recieving the items will send our church a check for the items submitted.
This new program fits with the stewardship goals of our church in two ways.
First, since our Lord created man and then gave him dominion over the Creation instructing him to work it and keep it (Cf. Genesis 1.28-30, 2.15), we believe that as human beings we have a divine mandate to be good stewards of the Creation. Recycling is one way in which we can be better stewards of the world, which our God has given us.
Second, since this program is dependent upon the donation of items that would otherwise create clutter or and waste, and since Planet Green pays the postage, this program provides us with a way to raise some additional funds for our church with very little effort and no expense on our part.
I hope you will be a good steward of what the Lord has given you, by taking part in this new program.
If your church is interested in starting such a recycling program, we recommend that you check out Planet Green at Planet Green Link (http:www.planetgreeninc.com)
