About Us

It all started with five sisters and a dream.

Growing up, we were five different personalities that shared the same last name. This created many good times and many sibling rivalries. As we matured, we began to see how our diverse talents and interests could combine to create a well-rounded work team.

Thus began the dream of owning our own Gospel Store.

As we brainstormed, planned and assigned duties in our dream store, life went on. One by one, we started families or careers. As our minds concentrated on child-raising, health concerns and job issues, our dream began to fade.

Until just recently.             

In the spring of 2004, our oldest sister approached a local Christian Bookstore, asking if there was a need for homemade cards. She enjoyed designing all occasion cards on her computer, mostly for the benefit of family and friends. With a little encouragement, she decided to see if there was a possibility to turn a hobby into a small home business.

There was.

But she had to change her thinking. Customers weren’t so interested in homemade cards for various reasons, but they did have a need. Cards which quoted verses from the King James Version of the Bible were becoming harder and harder to find. 

So she began to fill the need.

Meanwhile, in January of 2005, two other sisters joined a group of girls who desired to share their singing talents and produce a special music CD. Over a year’s time, they met together whenever their schedule allowed at a local recording studio. At the project’s end, they had an inspiring CD to offer, with all profits benefiting charity.

As the two sisters worked through the process of making their CD available to the public, the oldest sister began researching ways to offer her cards to a wider customer base. During a family night at our parent’s home on February 3, 2006, a CD was given to each family member to enjoy…and a card flyer was shared for review. Late that night, one sister began brainstorming as she rocked her infant daughter.

And thus was born, Melt the Heart.com.
