A L ETTER FROM YOUR CLUB MANAGER Mishell,

Dear Club Members,

What’s INSIDE SPRING 2017

A new Club year is upon us and I’m so pleased to be sharing it with you. The 2017 Club pieces celebrate how our friendships grow just like how a topiary garden might flourish – with tender love and gentle care. What a beautiful message! This lesson also speaks to me on another level; while I try to remain vigilant in tending to my special relationships, this year I have vowed to grow my garden of gratitude. Of course, life isn’t always easy, but there are oh-so-many blessings before us each and every day. For this reason, my children and I have begun planting our seeds of gratefulness jar. Each day we write down something we are grateful for and add it to the jar. At the end of the year we are going to sit down and read them all together! In this issue of MOMENTS, you will read about a Club Member who is especially grateful to Shriners Hospitals for Children and the care they offered her when she was a child. We also share with you some of the exciting events we have planned for this year, give you a sneak peek into what our Creative Department has been working on and offer some ideas for getting your figurines out from behind glass. As we look toward Spring, I want to encourage you to keep your hearts grateful, appreciating all the beauty we can find in each moment. Remember, positive thoughts make for a positive life!

SPRING 2017

A MESSAGE FROM PRECIOUS MOMENTS CREATOR, SamButcher

Dear Friends,

Now that Spring is near, I’ve found myself thinking about the Song of Solomon in the Old Testament. I believe it is one of the most beautiful books in the Bible. Although it consists of no more than eight chapters, it unfolds with a beautiful story about a groom and his lovely bride. The setting is in a garden and the time is in early Spring. The groom is a picture of Jesus and the bride is his church or body of believers. He speaks to her in loving words and begins with a heartfelt invitation. “Rise up, my darling! Come away with me, my fair one! Look, the winter is past, the rains are over and gone.” Many people have tasted the upheaval of the figurative winter’s storm and how it can destroy anything in its path. The world that we live in can seem so cold at times. Disappointments, betrayal and loneliness like a winter’s storm can bring us down and bury us beneath its weight. But then, we hear that still small voice of Him who says, “Rise up my fair one and come away, come out of the storm and take my hand and I will give you rest.” In chapter 2, verse 12, the curtain closes on the past and opens again with these reassuring words, “For the flowers appear on the Earth and the singing of the birds has come.”

The moment He takes us by the hand and leads us into His garden, we are bathed in the light of Spring. And you, my friend, can also experience that same Heavenly light when you step out of the storm and into His grace like His eternal bride who says: “My beloved is mine and I am His. He feedeth among the lilies.”

Sincerely in His love,

Sam Butcher

SPRING 2017

A Collector’s Story

W e recently met 21-year-old Rebekah, a student at Ouachita Baptist University in Arkadelphia, Arkansas where she is a kinesiology major. Rebekah is relatively new to the world of Precious Moments collecting and she explains how she was drawn to the brand. “Precious Moments figurines have always been present in my life— but it wasn’t until about a year ago that I took a personal interest in them. It started when my Auntie Kim took me to the Precious Moments Chapel. Being there amidst all the serenity and beauty ignited a new flame in my heart; the place was so peaceful that I could’ve stayed for days. There were so many different figurines that spoke to me!” Precious Moments figurines hold different meanings for each person and Rebekah’s take on them is quite touching. “One of the things I adore most about Precious Moments is the innocence portrayed in every figure. Each has the face of a child full of hope, adoration and wonder,” she explains. “Precious Moments children reflect the better side of humanity, the small pieces of us that still reflect the Garden of Eden.” This year’s Club theme is all about nurturing our most precious relationships, so we asked Rebekah to tell us about some of her most special bonds. She told us about two people very dear to her. “My best friend, Dani, has been by my side since the day I was born. We have some different tastes and different views. This has led to a couple of arguments. But with guidance from the Lord, peace, and love, we have made it through our disagreements and our friendship is still as strong as ever. I know that our deep affection will last until the end of time, regardless of what hardships we face.”

She also told us about another special person, her fiancé, Zachariah. “Ever since I was a little girl watching Disney movies, I’ve been hoping and praying for true love. But I was raised by people who told me it wasn’t enough to just “feel the butterflies.” To have a successful relationship, I must deeply know the person. I must know that I love him on his good days and his bad days, even when he drives me a little crazy. “How blessed am I to have found a man, Zach, with the same wise ideals my parents taught me! I could not have asked for a better man. We can talk for hours on end without getting bored, or we can just sit in silence together, simply enjoying the other’s company. I know that this journey Zach and I are on has only just begun, but I know that with God, we will get through anything.” Such touching tributes to the ones she loves! Rebekah’s favorite figurine is Some Days Have Their Ups And Downs a piece with a little blonde-haired girl gazing at Eeyore, the donkey from Winnie The Pooh. “This figurine means so much to me because my fiancé once played Eeyore in a show at Tulsa Little Theatre and I have blonde hair like the little girl! Thus, it is a precious representation of our relationship,” she tells us. In addition to her schooling, her special relationships, and her newfound love for Precious Moments, Rebekah is also a novelist and an avid reader. She enjoys dancing, running and weight lifting. After graduate school, she hopes to become a physical therapist. With such a positive attitude and zest for life, we have no doubt she will meet all her goals.

KOS’ KORNER Precious Moments Chief Executive Officer, Stephen “Kos” Kosmalski

Greetings Precious Moments Club Members!

I am very pleased to announce that the new Precious Moments lines are getting GREAT reception in the marketplace. Retailers from across America flocked to

designed Shriners figurine. I feel that helping these children is putting our mantra to “Share The Gift Of Love” into action and we are blessed to have the support of all of you and our employees in this endeavor. You can read more about Shriners and our donation totals to date on page 11.

our showrooms in Atlanta and Las Vegas in January and were very excited by our Snowman tabletop line, Angelic line and Garden line. (You can see some of these items on pages 8 & 9 of this issue!) In fact, our new garden stakes already have been purchased by FTD and will be available at FTD and our website in just a few months! The Precious Paws animal designs that many of you saw in your MOMENTS Magazine “sneak peeks” or at the 2016 Reunion Event are runaway hits with our licensees who sell plush animals and baby clothing—both of which are available on our website as well. It’s not that surprising to see our loyal fans want more types of products to feature elsewhere in the home (and to send as gifts), but it is very pleasing to see many young mothers clamoring toward Precious Moments product, often, for the first time. We continue to focus on the spiritual messaging upon which this company was built. The Precious Moments zinc alloy crosses are proving to be very popular and hard to keep in stock. As promised by me at last year's Reunion, you will see more gifts of all types with spiritual messages. (Stay tuned for a beautiful spiritually-themed piece in our upcoming Limited Editions!) While we are very excited about all of these new products, we are most proud of the support we are receiving for our Shriners Hospital for Children partnership. Thanks to all of you for, not only the donations you are making when checking out your order on our website, but also for purchasing the specially

We are so thrilled about these new products that we have put together a new marketing campaign to introduce them, along with our regular launch items.

The campaign, “Think You Know Precious Moments? Think Again…” helps to illustrate that, while Precious Moments has a long-standing history of providing quality and beloved items to market for nearly 40 years, we are also adapting to current trends and are just as relevant to today’s customers. A special thanks to all of you who have expressed your opinion about product and design ideas we put on the Precious Moments Facebook page. We appreciate your help in creating the perfect product, while exhibiting the soul of this company. Because of you and our entire Precious Moments family, I know 2017 is going to be a banner year!

Lovingly, Sharingly and Caringly Yours, Kos

2017 Production Mark Lighthouses are never specifically mentioned in the Bible (the closest mention being a “light on a hill”). However, a lighthouse shows the way and warns of danger. We, as Christians, are called on to be a beacon or lighthouse so that others can see the way to eternal life through Jesus Christ. The lighthouse is used to reflect God’s guidance and words and it represents God’s power to protect and comfort. The beacon symbolizes the light of Christ that Christians use as a guide for life. The light also represents salvation and hope for those who are spiritually lost. Psalm 119:105 “Your word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path…” Genesis 1:5 “And God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. God called the light ‘day’ and the darkness he called ‘night’. And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.” Isaiah 2:5 “O descendants of Jacob, come, let us walk in the Lord’s guiding light.”

Love To The Rescue! Precious Moments Partners with Shriners Hospitals for Children

L ast year it was announced that Precious Moments would partner with Shriners Hospitals for Children. For those not familiar with the amazing work that Shriners does, know that their mission includes providing the highest quality care to children with neuromusculoskeletal conditions, burn injuries and other special healthcare needs within a compassionate, family-centered and collaborative care environment. This mission is carried out without regard to race, color, creed, sex or sect, disability, national origin or ability of a patient’s family to pay. To further tell the story, it might be helpful if you got to know recent ClubMember Natalie C., from the Chicago, IL area. As a child, Natalie was diagnosed with spastic diplegia, which is a form of cerebral palsy that affects muscle control and coordination. It causes high and constant tightness or stiffness in the muscles of the lower extremities. She explained to us, “My parents took me to see many doctors while seeking treatment. We went to one of the best in Chicago, Dr. T., and his plan of attack was to perform a surgery that would stretch my hamstring muscles and have me in a full body cast for months. Of course, my parents wanted a second opinion. That is when we heard about Shriners Hospitals from a family friend.” After her first visit to Shriners, the family’s outlook was more hopeful. Natalie says, “On my first visit, I was seen by Dr. Millar, the Chief of Staff. When my parents told him what course of action the previous doctor wanted to take, he told us he felt that with proper braces, corrective footwear and physical therapy I would be able to get the same result without spending months in a body cast.” Over the course of the next 11 years, Natalie feels she received the absolute best treatment. “I was fitted with various sets of leg braces, given exercises to work on at home, and evaluated regularly. The environment was always upbeat and positive. Every kid was smiling regardless of their situation.” She continues, “The treatment I received at Shriners, partnered with the diligent efforts of my mother while at home, are the reason I lead the life I do today. I am an average person with a bit of an awkward gait. I have a husband and

Love To The Rescue 163017 | $50.99

two amazing daughters. I love to dance, swim and spend time at amusement parks with my family. I can easily keep up with them. It’s scary to think what my life would be like if I wasn’t a patient at Shriners.” Natalie thinks the Precious Moments figurine Love To The Rescue is absolutely perfect. She loves the way it portrays young children as their own heroes. She thinks, “It’s quite an inspiration to show the young patients that deep inside they truly are super heroes, even if they may not feel like it.” Since the partnership was announced, more than $17,000 has been raised to benefit those seeking help from Shriners Hospitals! When you purchase LoveToThe Rescue , a portion of the proceeds benefits the cause, or you may make a direct donation through online checkout at www.PreciousMoments.com. Remember that through your generosity, children have a better chance to grow up just like Natalie.

Natalie’s Advice... When you seek help from Shriners, know that you are becoming a part of a gigantic family of amazing people that will watch you grow up and remember you. Things will get easier as time goes by and treatment continues. You will look back 31 years later and see just how far you have come!

Wake your little love with a song, a present, balloon, birthday poster or even just hugs and kisses… whatever you do, make it a special time to show how much you care • Meal time traditions: make the birthday boy or girl feel special with a designated birthday placemat or dishes, as they get older, you can even let them eat off the good china!
