Church charity requires collateral of kindness - newarkadvocate.com

Church charity requires collateral of kindness - newarkadvocate.com: "HEBRON -- Everyone wishes they could give money to those in need, Vicki Hersey said.
Being able to afford that is another matter, though -- so when Hersey, 53, was asked to participate in the United Methodist Church of Hebron's first Pay it Forward project, she and other members of the congregation volunteered immediately.
The mission was simple. Each participant received $50 from the church. They would give that money to those who needed it with only one stipulation -- that the recipient pay it forward by performing a random act of kindness for someone else. "
