As time passed, after my daughter's death and during the pandemic lockdowns, all church programs and activities were shutdown so isolation, loneliness and illness became a way of life for many. I ask God, What now? I ask the Lord to lead me to a new ministry. Something I could do that would help me with my grief, keep my daughter's art alive, and to serve God the same time. I started a card ministry to use my daughter's artwork and my photography to spread uplifting messages and encouragement to the lonely, elderly, orphans and foster children. My card ministry is called Crystal Expressions. It has expanded to Spiritual Cards, handcrafted cards as well as photography mounted cards and now I have started painting watercolor cards. For SIFAT, an international Christian organization, I custom printed Spanish Bible Verse Cards for them to send to their students and alumni in South and Central America, I was informed this week that they are traveling to Costa Rico and plan to distribute my cards to their Spanish students living there. God has opened the door for me to spread his Word through this card ministry and the opportunities keep flowing in.
