Gardenfire T-shirt sales help to smuggle Bibles Gardenfire is making a $3 donation to The Voice of the Martyrs (VOM) with the sale of every Bible Smuggler T-shirt. The donation will help VOM and the Bibles to Captive Nations Fund to deliver God's Word "behind enemy lines." Shipping to stores June 1, the tee is packaged in a Christian market special for $199. The special includes 24 shirts-two S, four M, six L, eight XL and four 2X-at $8 each; hang tag and stickers explaining the program; half off freight; net 30 (upon credit approval); and free signage upon request. "Gardenfire is not making a profit" on the tee, owner Jayme Brandt told Inspirational Gift Trends Bulletin. "We may not have the shirt forever. We may not do Bible smuggling for the next 10 years, but Voice of the Martyrs does. It's what they do. "What I'm wanting to do is get orders and get the end customer, to bring awareness to what VOM does because five years from now, 10 years from now, they're going to be smuggling Bibles, and that's what they do all the time. We're just bridging the gap, and we'll probably be onto our next mission." The front of the Bible Smuggler tee reads, "I am a Bible smuggler-Convert Operation-Hebrews 13:3-'Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them...' , " and the back reads: "I smuggled a Bible. Ask me how." Suggested retail price is $15.99. For more information, call or visit www.gardenfire.net.
