The Coolest T-shirts Ever

Our website is officially up and running now! We’ve actually had it up for about two weeks now, but it still had some kinks. But in that time we have already sold thirteen T-shirts and five sets of note cards! Many of the T-shirts have been sold to people that we don’t know who have found us on the internet. We have shipped to California, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts… It makes us giddy every time we check our e-mail and find that we have had another order. Every one is a gift from God!

I am so proud of Daniel and his work on the website. I’m telling you – the guy can do anything.

Let me give a little explanation regarding the Go. Seek. Love. logo. These action verbs came from three different scriptures that are meaningful to us in our adoption process:

  • Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation. (Mark 16:15)
  • Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. (Matthew 6:33)
  • Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments." (Matthew 22:37-40)

We are trying to live out the instructions given to us in these scriptures by our adoption from Africa. But these scriptures describe a calling on all of our lives, each and every day. It’s our hope that all Christians will find meaning and purpose in the message of the shirts, whether it’s in Africa or Tennessee.

Here are a few photos of the Dubois-trio modeling some of the T-shirt options. Check out the website for the rest!
