- Who We Are
How it all started.
For more than 90 years, Swanson Christian Products has been dedicated to equipping churches, ministries, and believers with high-quality Christian gifts, supplies, and resources. From humble beginnings in Pennsylvania to a thriving multi-generational business, the company’s mission has always remained the same: to make His name known through gifts of eternal value.
Our Story
Swanson Christian Products began when our founder handcrafted wooden crosses in his home in Cain, Pennsylvania. Those crosses were sold to local Christian bookstores, sparking a small family business that would grow with passion, prayer, and dedication. Over time, the company expanded to include religious jewelry, bookmarks, balloons, and other faith-based gifts (some of which continue to be beloved products today).
As the youngest of six children, the current generation of Swanson was called to carry forward this family legacy. The company’s leadership has always sought to honor God in every decision, from product creation to customer care.
A Mission Guided by Faith
The heartbeat of Swanson Christian Products has always been more than profit, it’s about purpose. Early on, our team embraced core values rooted in Scripture: honesty, hard work, and the Golden Rule.
These principles guide how we create products, serve customers, and support our employees. Our company culture is centered on prayer, community, and service. From weekly Bible studies to guided vision sessions, we strive to ensure that faith is at the center of everything we do.
Gifts of Eternal Value
Swanson Christian Products has always prioritized meaningful, faith-driven items:
- Gold-Stamped Ribbons – Handmade and personalized with Scripture, a favorite of early generations.
- WWJD Bracelets and Accessories – Inspiring young believers to reflect on daily choices in light of Christ.
- One Body Communion Cups – A symbol of unity across denominations, communities, and nations, reminding believers that we are one body in Christ.
Every product is designed not just to be used, but to inspire, encourage, and help spread the message of God’s love.
Serving Communities Worldwide
Giving back is a core part of our mission. Through partnerships and outreach, Swanson Christian Products has:
- Distributed Bibles in rural China, bringing the Word of God to those who might never have access otherwise.
- Partnered with Operation Christmas Child, donating gifts, novelties, and resources to children around the world.
- Incorporated QR codes on products directing users to ComeAsk.org, providing guidance, prayers, and lessons in faith.
Each initiative reflects our commitment to using our products as tools to spread the gospel and serve others.
Continuing the Legacy
Now with fourth- and fifth-generation family members involved, Swanson Christian Products continues to grow while staying true to its founding mission: to glorify God through quality Christian products, servant leadership, and unwavering faith.
Whether through gifts, supplies, or resources, every product carries a story, a purpose, and a message: that God’s love is for everyone, everywhere.
