Our Story

"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven."
Matthew 5:16
 
CH.I.ME. was born from the desire to stand proudly as a follower of Christ and help others do the same. The creation of the CH.I.ME was inspired and established to help spread the message of being a light. As a mother of six, CH.I.ME founder, Cathie Riley, has seen the pressures put on young people to conform to the world and; therefore; wanted to create a brand that was subtle in design, but bold in message. The CH.I.ME name is designed to serve as a gentle reminder to those who display it that as a Christian, Christ is with you. 
 
CH.I.ME is a collaborative effort based in the hills of Northern Virginia. The design and message are the result of individuals of different Christian backgrounds coming together with a common goal to support the effort of evangelism. We are all called to be disciples, to spread the good news, to evangelize. CH.I.ME is designed to give Christians of all backgrounds a voice when words may fail.
