Lighthouse Christian Products’ new “Servant of All Ministry Appreciation Collection” is launched this month for Clergy Appreciation Month in October, when many churchgoers wish to express their gratitude for pastors, ministry leaders or lay leaders.

The Servant of All Plaque (6 by 6 inches, $14.99) and the Servant of All Paperweight (3.3 by 1 inches, $12.99) are each made with hand-cast resin and a new metallic resin bronze finish technique, a technique that is “new to the Christian market and gives the pieces a unique finish,” said Ed Nizynski, vice president of sales at Lighthouse Christian Products. The plaque and paperweight bear the verse Mark 9:35.

The Pastor Metal Message Cross ($19.99), available next month in brown, medium size, matches the Lighthouse Pastor Words of Inspiration mug, and features three-layer printing, a velvet back and an easel with a wall-hanger option.

In a different collection also suitable for Clergy Appreciation Month, new “Moments of Faith” Sculpture Plaques are releasing in August. The four 8.75-by-8.75-inch pieces—Eagle, Word of God, Golfer and Runner—retail for $29.99 each. The plaques, which can be used as desktop accessories, are made of hand-cast resin and feature a new metallic resin bronze finish technique with raised letters and 3-D relief sculpted figures. Each comes with a velvet back and an easel with a wall-hanger option.

The Word of God Sculpture in the “Moments of Faith” series, sized at 8.25 by 3.25 by 6.5 inches, retails for $39.99. The sculpture portrays God’s Word and a two-edged sword with the scripture Hebrews 4:12. The hand-cast piece sits on a black satin wooden base.

The “Servant of All” and “Moments of Faith” pieces are produced in partnership with New Day Creations in Beijing. Sales support the special-needs orphans at New Day Foster Home.
