Wesley Owen Books and Music and Crown Books have launched a Bibles for India collection.
Customers are being invited to drop off their unused Bibles at their local Wesley Owen or Crown shop between 29 March and 30 May.
The collected Bibles collected will be shipped to Operation Mobilisation in India who will distribute them to Indian Christians who are hungry for the Word but unable to afford their own copy of the Bible.
Malcolm Stockdale, Managing Director of Wesley Owen, pointed to Isaiah 55: "So it is with my word that goes out... it will not return to me empty but will accomplish what I desire, and achieve the purpose for which I sent it."
He added, "Be part of this exciting promise of God. Hand in your spare Bibles and we will send them to India to bless our Christian brothers and sisters there. Go on... strip those bookshelves bare!"
