Original Post
Welcome to our neighborhoood in Etsyland. Etsyland is the best and friendliest place on the internet for international commerce. It is home to so many talented artists and crafts people. We would love to have you share your talents with us as we grow spiritually and build our businesses physically.
TeamCAC - Christian Artists and Crafters
We are a team of Christians who come into this group at different levels of spiritual growth in our walk with the Lord. We are here to support one another no matter what our level of faith or doctrine knowledge.
We liken it to swimming lessons. You have the: Guppies (New), Minnows (Beginners), Mermaids (Intermediate) and Dolphins (advanced). All part of the growing team, but different levels of knowledge and experience. Each one valuable and important.
We encourage our members to share their understandings and opinions on their faith and life experience without fear of judgment or condemnation. We are all on our own personal path and should feel safe, comfortable and supported on our journeys.
We ask that each member be cautious with their words, and speak through love, patience and compassion, as taught by our Master.
This team will be supervised by five monitors and should any member feel uncomfortable with a situation taking place within the team, the monitors are to be contacted immediately to handle the situation. Do NOT confront the person publically as this only makes others uncomfortable. Should a monitor ask a member to refrain from a particular behavior, and they do not abide, they will be asked to leave the group.
We will not be monitoring what people sell in their stores, but we just ask that you take into consideration how your items may reflect upon the team.
This is a "TEAM" and it is important that each member participate in team functions in an effort to raise visibility for our stores. This means pitching for others and making an effort to promote your fellow teammates, as well as, your own store.
Our agenda is to support one another in our sales, promotions, friendship and faith. In order to secure your shoppe being promoted by other members please make sure have that you are a member of TeamCAC on your announcement page or profile page also tag your items with TeamCAC, if you choose. It will help with searching items. This is no mandatory thing.
If you would like to be a part of team with a heart for Jesus Christ, come and join us!
To Join: Member requests should be made via convo to
TeamCACModerators.

Today's Featured Seller is...
www.etsy.com/shop/Heartandsowdesigns
Be sure to check out her shop and all the beautiful accessories!
"For all the new members, each day of the week, M-F, a team shop from the first page list, who has "Member of Team CAC" in their shop announcement or profile, is listed here in a promo. The other team members will browse the shop, give hearts and then post their favorite item with a link in the thread here. We also specifically uphold the shop in our thoughts and prayers throughout the day. Members likely will only be featured once, as the list continues to grow. I try to keep account of whom has been chosen, in order to give everyone the opportunity. Please help to promote one another on a daily basis...edify and encourage! Thanks!"

This is a running list of everyone who offers discounts/trades to other CAC Team Members...a great way to bless one another and promote sales within our group...I will keep a file and post it periodically...like the prayers, names, etc.

am so sick sick sick of all this snow!! My friend in FL was just telling me they are even supposed to get snow! hmmmmmmmmmm global warming? LOL
********************
This is SO true, it is forecasted for tomorrow. I have to be honest and say that I said I little prayer for it. I haven't seen snow since I moved from Wva 10 years ago. I would LOVE to be blessed with that site again.

If you all have a minute today to lift an old friend of mine up (my college roomie actually), she lost her little sister yesterday. I haven't been able to get all the details yet, but it sounds like maybe a car accident. The whole family was very very close, but especially the sisters (they have 3 brothers too) and I can't imagine what the parents must be feeling. Parents should never have to bury their children.

Morning everyone! Can only stay for a bit. Guess what? NO BIRTHDAYS today!
My fav from the fs:

This apron is not only beautiful, it would be so functional while working or doing a craft show!

Morning Alicia! =)
I love this apron from the FS...it's so cute and feminine...

Praying blessings for the seller today...sales in her shop!
We're getting some light snow...I was hoping to run downtown to the bank today and stop by a fabric shop, so we'll see.
I have to go get busy this morning. I only accomplished cutting out items yesterday...today I want to get them all sewn before noon...that's about a dozen of my new product. =)
Have a blessed morning and sorry I missed everyone else.

Oh, Any, how sad! I will be praying for the family. It is extremely hard for a parent to bury a child. My sister and brother-in-law went through that 22 years ago when their youngest son died at the age of 3. I still occasionally think about him and wonder "What would he look like now and what would he be doing with his life if he had survived?"
