Welcome,
To be clear, this store does NOT generate any profit for the church, even for any church related items. We break even on church items, (I'm even considering closing the store to church related items because there's not enough interest. The other NON-church related items are from our home based business that we use to pay expenses while on the road for Celtic Events. Further, it is NOT a requirement that any visiting seminarian buy any product off this site, but is offered for the convenience. of those who live far from other resources. It is designed to provide church goods for churches in our rural prairie environment where access to items is limited and costly due to distances. All prices are in CANADIAN dollars, not American, and if there are ever any revenues left over after wholesale cost plus shipping of church related items, those funds are used to help those who cannot afford seminary studies to be able to do so without or at a reduced cost on as as needed and available basis. Again, this is NOT a for profit store for the church. We keep the church books and our livelihood records separate,
To be clear, this store is NOT part of the church, but is a webpage space the church lets DD handcrafts use as the vendors physically help with our mobile ministry and tithe to the church from their sales profits to cover costs of said mobile ministry. The church receives tithes from the vendors but it does not profit from nor participate directly in individual sales, The church only accepts tithes from the company that does the sales, The NON-church related items, thus, are from a home based business., (even the apostles worked.) DD Handcrafts is using and updating and editing the old store pages from our previous church supply webpage the church no longer uses, and any church related items thereon are left over personal items purchased but never used and given to DDHandcrafts to help the get their store page started.. Once they are sold there will no longer be church related items available through this store, only DD handcraft leather, crochet, and souvenir items. All prices are in CANADIAN dollars, not American, sorry. Please do not conflate the church with the store, they are not the same entity.
