I had been offered a job writing for Joyce Meyer Ministries and was leading a Bible study for the Cardinal players' wives and had moved away to St. I was wondering how I could still host her baby shower now that I would be so far away. God downloaded an idea. I would still host it by creating unique invitations and response cards for everyone I would invite! Because I love to get mail and packages
I just knew she would love a flood of gifts too; especially if we all sent the same message to her but with our own gift and signatures. This is how Celebrations by Mail was born. It sat dormant for years until a friend asked me where I bought the Baby Shower by Mail invitation kit. I told her I had invented it and actually hand-made the cards. So we developed the concept, handed it over to our attorney in Tulsa so that we were able to translate to birthdays, bridal showers, and housewarming. We even have a generic card that could be used for Encouragement or simply "Just Because." I used the nest theme because it represents God's creation of life and new beginnings. 100% of all proceeds go to directly support our ministry: adoption awareness and life-affirming decisions for crisis pregnancies. You help "save a nest" with each purchase. We will have a "hatching" party soon to officially release the hostess kits but in the meantime are taking pre-orders as they are being printed.
