Our Story

Hello and welcome to my store! I am Candy Radder. With the help of the Lord, I am the founder of Live 516 LLC, a Christian apparel company. In June of 2019, God started giving me ideas for Christian t-shirts and I was simply writing them down because my dad's health was not doing well. Much of my energy went into his care. Everything changed in July when my daughter, Heather, left for California with a Lyft driver named Mathie, at 3 AM. I walked her out and I went back to bed and folded my hands and closed my eyes. Matthew 5:16 popped in my head. Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. Where did that come from, I said out loud! I texted the scripture to Heather and said, "Be the light." It didn't end there. The verse popped in my head again when my dad went into hospice care. It was not just the words; this one came with a design from the You Version Bible App. I felt like the Lord was saying, "I gave you all the ideas and you have not done anything with them. Start with this ONE." Hours later, my friend Maria texted me with a daily devotional with an acrostic CALLED. Christ Aligned Living Light Evident by your Deeds. I knew what the Lord wanted me to do... Make Christian t-shirts to spread His message. My dad went to heaven soon after. Hospice called for a wellness check. I said, "I am okay. God gave me a job to do when dad left." God set me up with my son and daughter-in-law who were already making t-shirts for their new, small business. We started Live 516 LLC. My dad wrote "Salvation, Don't Leave Earth Without It" on the tail wing of his homebuilt airplane to spread God's message. I believe these shirts are to go all over the world. I got it... Start with this ONE. Don't be afraid to let your light shine!
