BUMC T-Shirts Share God’s Love

Share the message of God’s love with our new t-shirts designs!

“Love is Louder” is a bold design on a grey t-shirt and “Beloved” is a simple design on a white t-shirt. 

If you order the grey or white t-shirt, they will be printed on brand new tees. But, if you’re willing to consider another option, we have a great one that helps us live into our call to better care for God’s creation – printing on thrifted tees! 

Why choose thrifted?

Why should you consider this upcycle option? It helps reduce textile waste. “Fast fashion” is a major problem — cheap clothing has produced a glut of cheap clothing. The fashion industry is the second biggest polluter on the planet. Take a look at this infographic made by Katie Couture with data from World Resource Institute

Fast fashion significantly impacts the environment through resource depletion, pollution, and waste generation, contributing to climate change and microplastic pollution. The industry’s reliance on synthetic materials, water-intensive processes, and a throwaway culture leads to significant environmental harm.  Want to learn more?

Printing on thrifted t-shirts is one way we can reduce this harm and support the circular economy – and better care for God’s creation!
