Anatomy of a 'Gem' shell necklace

Just like that shell, you are uniquely beautiful.


I never sell these necklaces.
Just like the necklace, you can't be bought. 


You are priceless.


A little scallop grew that shell. In the end, its shell was pierced by a starfish who took the scallop's life. That tiny creature lived its whole life just so its shell could wash up for us to appreciate its beauty. 
In a similar way, our Saviour gave his whole life just so we could know Him and experience His Love for this life, and for eternity. Just like that shell, He was pierced. For you.
But our Saviour, -much like how the sun never dies, but rises again- couldn't be held down by death.
Like the sun, the Son rose again. 
He waits with a smile in his face and a tear in his eye to see anyone run to Him for healing.
I don't wear a cross. I wear one of these myself. It represents the same thing.

"You are priceless. You are treasure."
"You are beautiful."
"You are loved."

Because your Creator loved you first.

Who we are

Welcome. This is The Gem Shell Initiative. What are we about? You. 

TGSI is here to speak truth. Truth about the value and love every human was given from birth by our Creator. God makes no 'mistakes', only people.


You were never a mistake.
Run with that!
