Champaign, Illinois (PRWEB) -- Charles Corey, founder of Agape Love Corner Gift Shop, believes love/charity is the key to unlocking the closed doors of addiction. Corey has proven that determination and a strong spiritual foundation can bring anyone back from the brink.

Corey has created a Website at www.agapelc.org, where visitors can purchase Christian gifts from the comfort of their homes without the hassle of crowded stores; and have it delivered directly to their front door. I received a revelation from God to setup a website to set free those who are in bondage through drugs", says Corey. Customers have the option of sending a portion of the proceeds from their orders to someone in a treatment center or prison. Unlike most charitable programs, Agape allows participants to make a donation and receive a beautiful gift. Its a win win program.

The company's name and mission comes from John 3:16. Agape, meaning giving of yourself without yielding to a Whats in it for me?" Attitude. This is the attitude that best describes Agape, which is unconditional love. Buy a gift for yourself or a loved one and help someone in need with a charitable gift, all in one act of giving. The site features over 4,000 Christian items including Figurines, Jewelry, and Bibles.

Also, from your act of charity, proceeds from purchased items go toward funding a rehabilitation center Corey hopes to establish. The center will be a place where people who have recently been released from jail — especially those with a history of substance abuse — can be counseled and prepared to re-enter society.

"I've come to find out, the only true way to counsel somebody is to lead them to Christ." Corey said his dream for Agape Love Corner is to be a place of action and of investing in people's lives.
