[ Children ] • “Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, So are the children of one’s youth. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them: They shall not be ashamed, but shall speak with their enemies in the gate. - Psalm 127:3-5

The children at .mina_childrenshome and .philomena_childrenshome have truely inspired and humbled us. Having our own children we struggle with the idea of these children not having their own biological family with them and then we think how blessed they are that God had a place for them at these amazing homes. They are nourished far beyond food and clothing, we know God has a wonderful plan for them all and we trust in his timing of all things. These children are in our hearts constantly and we feel so blessed to be able to in some small way give to them. ✨

We believe each verse is important and even the smallest of them can speak truth to anyone who reads them. We are working on a special collection of scripted prints, that will be the perfect gift or even a beautiful addition to your Holy home✨
