Unveiling Blessing Bear: The Teddy that Holds Prayers, Blessings, and Endless Love

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Introducing Blessing Bear: A Huggable Way to Promote Radically Inclusive Faith Amidst Florida's Fear-Based Educational Policies

St. Petersburg, FL — The Graceful Goose is thrilled to announce the launch of Blessing Bear, an 18-inch teddy bear designed to help children feel unconditionally loved, cherished, and accepted. With the aim of fostering a more inclusive faith in children, Blessing Bear arrives at a time when divisive, fear-based policies are affecting education in Florida.

Crafted with care, Blessing Bear features a hidden pocket where family and friends can insert handwritten prayers, blessings, or messages. This creates a tangible way for parents to nurture their children's faith, enveloping them in a circle of love and acceptance from day one.

"Being a parent is an incredible journey that's fraught with worries and doubts. I created Blessing Bear to help families lean into a faith that's about unconditional love and acceptance, not fear and division," says Michelle Palacios, the founder of The Graceful Goose. "In light of Florida's recent educational policies, which are causing concern among families seeking an open and inclusive Christian upbringing for their children, Blessing Bear serves as a counterpoint. It's more than just a teddy bear; it's a movement towards creating a radically inclusive faith."

Why Blessing Bear Matters

The current educational policies in Florida have alarmed families who are concerned about an environment that may not fully support diversity, inclusivity, and open dialogue. Blessing Bear seeks to fill that void, serving as a child's first introduction to a faith that loves without boundaries and cherishes all of humanity.

"Blessing Bear is a call to action. It reminds us to go beyond the fear-based narratives and instead focus on what faith should truly be about—loving God and loving our neighbors," adds the founder.

The Graceful Goose is committed to providing parents with meaningful ways to surround their babies with love and support. Their mission is to create a world where all people, regardless of their differences, can be welcomed, accepted, and loved. Blessing Bear is the first step in this exciting journey.
