Scripture bandages introduced

Band Angels bandages, promoted as "healing scripture bandages for kids," offer a Christian alternative to cartoon band-aids.

Recently introduced by New Day Christian Distribution, Band Angels feature one of three Bible verses on healing: Is. 53: 5, Jer. 30:17 and Ex. 15:26.

The product was well-received at the MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) International Convention and also at the Association of Christian Schools International conferences, according to company President Tim West, who created the product. "The response has been incredible, and sales are huge," he said. "(We had) to order an additional 500,000 units within two weeks of receiving our first order."

The company promotes Band Angels as "a great way to teach children that Jesus is the source for our healing and a reminder of God's promises to us."

Each box holds 20 adhesive bandages and retails for $2.99. For more information, go to the Band Angels site. www.bandangels.net To order, call New Day at 800-251-3633, or go to www.newdaychristian.com.
