  • Roy Lessin, a co-founder of DaySpring Cards, has been sharing messages of hope and faith since the company produced its first greeting card in 1971.

     

    After receiving Jesus as his Lord and Savior in 1961, Roy attended Bethany Fellowship Bible College (Bethany International) where he met his wife, Charlene. Together they embarked on a journey of ministry and serving as missionaries in Mexico and Puerto Rico and as leaders in Christian education and youth ministry at College Avenue Presbyterian Church in Oakland, California before launching DaySpring Cards. 

     

    Ordained as a minister of the gospel Roy’s passion for sharing God’s love has touched countless lives.  Today, his writing ministry continues to inspire through heartfelt cards, books, and online devotionals that point others to the enduring hope and grace found in Christ.
