About Us
Seasonal Words Limited has been a long time coming. It has taken years of praying, planning, preparation, hoping and waiting for the right moment to birth this ministry/business. I am so excited to be able to open up and finally share this gift of being able to spreading words of encouragement and hope to the masses.
Seasonal Words is a religious/inspirational company that is inspired by love and hope with the purpose of producing excellent quality products that encourages, uplifts, cheers the heart and to say those special words, at a special time or spontaneously for that special person in your life.
The market has been inspired by the Afro-Caribbean culture with the hope of appealing to everyone.
Aim
The aim of Seasonal Words is to inspire. I strongly believe that God has called me to be an encourager whether by the words I speak or with the words I write. I want to be able to encourage, uplift and strengthen those who are feeling weary, weak or worthless. We are all precious is God’s eyes and He wants us all to know and believe this.
A word in season, how good it is
Like a dazzling piece of art
It can cheer you up; encourage your soul
And mend that broken heart
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
Proverbs 25:11
