The Journey of a Lifetime

October 3rd, 2007

BRM 109 speaks to Life and the journey we travel each day. Our journey is a personal journey with its’ own ups and downs. Some days our journey brings us to the mountain peak where everything is as it should be. We have stayed sober another day, we have our health, our loved ones. Today our hearts are filled with joy and thankfulness. Then we travel along and we find ourselves in the valley of life. This is where our opportunity to grow and learn becomes ever so important. We can not appreciate the mountain tops of life unless we have truly experienced the valleys. The sun will shine again.

As we journey through life, let’s remember to travel One Day At A Time.

A Starfish Story

September 2nd, 2007

There is a popular starfish story I like where a young boy is throwing starfish back into the ocean so they don’t die in the sun. This story is featured on our newest Serenity wallpaper for this month. Click here to read it! Remember to right click on the image after it loads, and choose “set as desktop background” to set the picture as your computer wallpaper.

Life sometimes seems overwhelming like saving the starfish. There are so much happening, so many problems to solve, people who need help. How easy it would be to just wring our hands and think there is nothing we can do. The starfish story tells us we can make a difference and we don’t even have to do anything gigantic. We can offer a smile to someone, we can volunteer in our own communities, offer a shoulder for someone to cry on, visit someone who is shut in or just be there for someone who is grieving. Wendell’s Starfish medallion is a perfect 1” medallion to carry as a reminder to be someone who “MAKES A DIFFERENCE”.

Finding Strength in the Wind

August 1st, 2007

When we hear the word Powerless, we sometimes think it means being passive.I don’t necessarily think this is true. There are circumstances in life that we truly have no control over such as the weather, disease, death. We don’t have power over what desires we have, but we do have power over what actions we take.

When these circumstances present themselves to us, we are powerless over them but not helpless.We can do whatever is necessary to protect ourselves and help us deal with them. We rely on friends and family to see us through and we in turn help someone else. Another words, we adjust our sails and keep moving on.

Powerlessness is not an excuse to give up and bail out on life and responsibility.

Peace Amid The Storm

July 2nd, 2007

Our busy daily lives can have us being pulled in many different directions. Whether it is our children, our jobs, everyday life can leave us frazzled with feelings of not being in control. We learn quickly that we need to find time to just sit and let our minds wander to special places where we can find our Serenity and re-fuel our souls. The Serenity coin gives us a beautiful Serenity scene that we can focus on as we thank our higher power for our sobriety and prepare for the challenges ahead.

Live for the moment

May 1st, 2007

Allow yourself to “let go” and not be concerned with each outcome - live for the moment and enjoy! -Buddha

Step 3 alludes to the idea of “turning our lives over”. This is a difficult action in that we all like to have control. The mere thought of giving that up is very scary and yet it is only when we do, our lives become more manageable. The Serenity Prayer says “Grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, change the things I can and wisdom to know the difference”. Let go of all that is keeping you down and live for the moment.

Wendell’s is proud to be celebrating it’s 125th anniversary!

April 1st, 2007
We want to share our continued success with our friends in the recovering community. We have been busy creating new and meaningful medallions for you to carry with you on your journey. We have also struck these new designs in our newest material, NiCodium, with a satin finish.

The 1” medallion in the blue bags have some of our most popular designs including the angels as well as new designs like the Starfish with Everyone Matters and the Spirit with Peace. These are excellent pieces to give to friends who need a little pick me up or to anyone whom you think would be encouraged to have one. These are sold in rolls of 25 – one roll per bag.

Our larger 1-5/16″ medallions, in the red bag, carry some our most popular designs plus the Footprints and a new version of the Kindness coin. These are sold in quantities of 10 in the bag. Either way, these medallions are bound to offer encouragement as we travel along life’s path.

A Season For Growth…

February 1st, 2007
Continuity gives us roots; change gives us branches, letting us stretch and grow and reach new heights.  Pauline R. Kezer
Wendell's Customer Service team

(L-R) Top: Chris, Marisa, Anita, Jamie Bottom: Tammy, Suzie, Bonnie


As Wendell’s celebrates their 125th Anniversary this year, it has been enlightening to reflect on the past, see pictures of our company in it’s early beginnings, seeing people who have long (and some newly) retired and reflect on where we have been, where we are now, and where we want to go. Our roots are well planted, but our branches are continually being stretched and growing as we reach our new heights. So too with Serenity Corner, To provide faster service and assure you can place your orders on the first call, we are having Customer Service Representatives take calls for Recovery orders. You know that Sue would not just let anyone talk to “her customers” so you know that this team has passed a rigorous training and inspection program to assure that they are helpful, professional and of course friendly. The next time you call Wendell’s and hear a voice other than Sue’s, you are likely saying hello to one of Wendell’s Customer Service Professionals. If you miss talking to Sue, you can still ask to speak to her, and don’t be surprised when Sue calls you just to check that you are satisfied with your product and our service. It is not just that Sue like to “chat”, our Customer’s satisfaction is still her number one mission.

As always, Wendell’s stands by their tradition of high quality products, great customer service and 24 hour shipping. We look forward to hearing from you and taking your order.
