Restore

In 2025, Mercy House Global is embracing the theme Restore, drawing from the timeless promises of Psalm 23. This year is a journey of renewal and healing—an invitation to rest in God’s presence and to trust in His restoration. The psalm’s imagery of a Good Shepherd leading us to still waters reminds us to slow down and embrace the peace He provides. The map above features Sanaa art created by the girls of Rehema House, illustrating Psalm 23 with new artwork added each month to reflect this journey. As we focus on restoration, we are reminded that when God restores, He gives more than we have lost—offering true renewal and abundant life.

Be at Rest

“My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” Exodus 33:14

When one of the world’s greatest theologians, Dallas Willard, was asked to describe Jesus in one word, he thought carefully, unhurried, and he slowly answered, “He was relaxed.”

Jesus was at ease. He lived in a state of rest. He was reposed.

Yes, He was so many other things too, but there’s no denying that Jesus was calm, intentional, and patient. Matthew 11:29 reminds us of His invitation. “Take my yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”

Repose is a state of rest. It is letting God lead us beside the still waters of Psalm 23.

It is said that hurry is violence against our souls, so slowing down and living in a state of rest might just be the opposite.

Take a deep, slow, cleansing breath. Give your soul and body a chance to catch up with each other.

Relax.

This month’s box is a reminder to rest, to take care of yourself, and to remember the invitation to turn our lives over to God. He cares for us.

WHAT DO WE MEAN BY ETHICAL?

Ethically traded products are crafted by artisans who work in safe conditions, receive a fair wage, and maintain reasonable working hours. No child sacrificed their education to create your new favorite item, and no parent toiled in a sweatshop for 80 hours a week. We ensure that all of our MHG Clubs items are ethically sourced.

HOW ARE MHG CLUBS DIFFERENT THAN OTHER SUBSCRIPTION CLUBS?

MHG Clubs are operated by Mercy House Global, a 501(c)3 charitable organization. All proceeds from MHG Clubs empower vulnerable families in Jesus’ name with opportunities that provide hope.

MHG CLUBS PARTNER WITH FAITH-BASED ARTISAN GROUPS ACROSS THE GLOBE. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

While we are a faith-based ministry and collaborate with other faith-based ministries, religion is not imposed on artisans, nor is it a prerequisite for employment. Many women and their families practice different religions than we do, and that is okay. Our belief in Christ compels us to love, serve, and assist others, irrespective of their personal belief systems.
