I love Christmas time because I love to give gifts. I put a lot of thought into what I get people (probably too much if you ask my husband).
At Elevation we make it a point to honor each other. Its one of my husband's core values, honor those God has used in your life.
This year for Christmas, I wanted to honor our staff wives and a few other special ladies that God has placed in my life. Their husbands eat, sleep and breathe Elevation and there are days where they pay a personal price for being in the ministry.
I had a custom necklace designed for each of them. Its something that they can wear with pride and know that everyday, when their husband goes to work, the mission of his employer is... so that people far from God will be filled with life in Christ.
My husband honored the men with a killer ring.
We gave the gifts out at our Christmas party last Friday night. I don't think McCormick and Schmick had ever seen a Christmas party as fun as ours! Thanks Larry and Ryan for providing such wonderful entertainment!
Pictured below are the necklace the core women received (in silver, not gold) and the ring the core men received (minus the diamonds). I don't have pictures of the the ring the other staff men received and the necklace the staff wives received.
Sorry, these pieces were limited edition :).
