Hi everyone!

  Thanks for visiting our new website. John and I have begun to work on this project together and like he said, it will be a work in progress.

  I started the COVERED BY THE CROSS label a few years ago in 2003 as a way for me to share with others about GOD's Mercy, Grace, Love, Forgiveness, Blessings through the sacrifice of his son, our Lord, Jesus.

  GOD brought me home like the "Prodigal Son" and showed me just how great his Mercy, Grace, Love, and Forgiveness are.   

  So now, I want to share with others what GOD has/can/will do. John has put this website together and hopefully, GOD will lead us to where he wants us to go from here.

  There are t-shirts available now for $7.00 from my friend and screen printer Dustin of "EMPTY WITHOUT GOD SCREEN PRINTING"  http://emptywithoutgod.com/covered-by-the-cross.html 

  You can order them direct from Dustin and the funds from the shirt sales are donated to help out  our Missionaries in Japan, Dave and Shinko Levy of CHRISTIAN SURFERS JAPAN Ministries

  Also, I have recently met LEAH BLANKENSHIP who founded and runs "CARE HOUSE LIFE MINISTIES" here in San Diego. She heads up a non-profit Christian group whose mission is to help care for many of the 2000 homeless and abandoned children and teens in San Diego County. (Her number is (619) 299-2777 or you can find  more on her and the CAREHOUSE LIFE MINISTRIES at:

http://serving-sandiego.com/2005/05/care-house-life-ministries/ 

  I would like to bring these folks to the front in hopes that we can somehow help them take care of these children who have been discarded and left behind. Please feel free to contact them directly to see what you can do to help, even it is only a little, it can go a long way and means everything to these children.

  I will also have stickers available for free soon, so please stay tuned for those. They look just like the lable at the top left.

I believe that if we can get some momentum we can make a difference, even while sitting in front of our computers. We can help spread the word in Japan, and also help the children of San Diego. Please pray about this and if any thing comes to you, we are standing by to hear from you all.

Well, that's it for now. Thanks again and please pray for God's leading for John and I so we will know where we are going.

ALOHA
