Our Story
Our Mission
Our mission is to evangelize through our apparel. Inspiring both you and those who see God's word on our clothing to seek Him. If even one person encounters Christ's message and it sparks their curiosity, we’ve fulfilled our daily mission. Sometimes, an image, quote, or verse can convey far more than words can express.
How We Got Started
One day during my commute to work while in the middle of Covid. I found myself sitting in traffic at 6 am, watching the sunrise. While I sat there staring out my window doing my morning prayers, all I could think of at that moment was how beautiful God's creation was. I've seen many sunrises in my life, but this one was different. In that instant, I forgot how broken the world was. I found myself asking God to grant me the opportunity to be at home with my kids. I prayed to love Jesus more, praise him more, find more time to learn about him and just be with him. I felt the urge to tell the world how wonderful he is. The Holy Spirit must have touched my heart because suddenly I had an idea. What if I could help spread his message, have more time for prayer and be at home with my kids? See, I loved my job in healthcare, but this idea was calling to me. I knew I had to do it. That's how Saint Raphael Apparel was born.
Why Saint Raphael Apparel

We will continue to grow our faith, and bring you great quality products to help you along the way, in your journey with Jesus Christ.
Hi! My name is Ixabel Ceja, founder of SRA. It all started with a simple thought and turned into a dream. During my career in healthcare, while fulfilling, I knew I wanted to do something to inspire others and myself to seek Christ. Now, as I venture into creating apparel, it's not only about the apparel looking and feeling good. I want these designs to inspire you and others to explore and embrace the teachings of Jesus. Wear your faith; understand it, live it, and eventually share it when the time is right. Through Saint Raphael Apparel, it's how I'm sharing my faith with you.
