Vintage Sheep Christmas Shirt He Left The 99 To Find Me

He Left The 99 To Find Me, Said By A Sheep In A Red Scarf

The line comes from the parable of the lost sheep, and on this Vintage Sheep Christmas Shirt it gets a second half that feels like exhale: but now I’m found. Our design sets that sentence in tall red lettering above and below a single wooly sheep, with a looping script line, “To Find Me,” tucked between the words. The sheep wears a holly and berry wreath on its head and a striped red scarf with a little bow and bells.

A Christmas Shirt For Anyone Who Has Ever Felt Found

Our Vintage Sheep Christmas Shirt is a faith-centered holiday tee for the person who hears the story of the shepherd and the one lost lamb as their own. It suits a woman who sings in the choir, a grandmother who keeps a nativity on the mantel, a youth group leader, or a friend who has come back to church after a long time away. The message is quiet and personal, and it says what many people feel at Christmas without needing an explanation.

Around the sheep, red snowflakes and pale green stars drift across the deep forest green. The red lettering has a worn, retro look, like a church bazaar poster from a few decades ago. Nothing is crowded. The sheep stands calm in the middle, and the words wrap around it like a blessing said twice.

Where This Sheep Shows Up During The Holidays

We picture it at the candlelight service, where it can sit under a coat until the sanctuary warms up. It also works for a Christmas Eve dinner with the whole family, a cookie exchange, or a Sunday morning drive when the radio is playing carols. It looks good next to plaid pajamas and a mug of cocoa, too.

Some people will wear it because the verse has carried them through a hard year. Others will wear it because the sheep is simply sweet, with its small bells and its calm face. Both reasons are good ones, and the shirt holds up for either.

Who Else Might Love This Sheep Christmas Shirt?

A Sunday school teacher, a pastor’s wife, a new believer, or a sister who loves a good faith-themed Christmas gift would all feel at home in it. The words speak to anyone who has been brought back to the fold, which is a wide circle of people.

Wear it once the tree goes up, and the sheep will have a spot at the table.
