About Phil 4:4

Hi! We're Michael & Suzanne Halbrook. 

Michael works full-time in tech and serves as an ordained Catholic deacon; Suzanne works full-time at a local Catholic high school.

Phil 4:4? We got engaged on Gaudete Sunday ("Rejoice" Sunday) in Advent of 2003, and one of the readings that comes up on Gaudete Sunday includes Philippians 4:4.

"Rejoice in the Lord always. I shall say it again: rejoice!
Your kindness should be known to all. The Lord is near.
Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition,
with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God.
Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding
will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus."
  - Phil 4:4-7 (emphasis added on 4:4)

We were married in 2004 and have four sons (as of January 2026, they're 20, 18, 16, & 13 years old).

On Phil 4:4, we hope and pray to be able to launch a new, limited edition, positive, faith-based or inspirational design every month or two. 

Once we sell out of a design, we probably won't make more of it, so if you like it, get it while you can!
