The Tetelestai Youth Short Sleeve T-Shirt

Why “Tetelestai”?

The Greek word Tetelestai (τετέλεσται) translates into English as “It is finished." This was the final word spoken by Jesus from the cross (John 19:30), and it holds deep theological significance. The root verb teleō means “to complete, accomplish, finish.” In saying “Tetelestai,” Jesus declared that the work He came to do—redeeming humanity, fulfilling Scripture, satisfying God’s justice—was accomplished.

Because the word is in the perfect tense in Greek, it doesn’t merely mean “It was finished.” It carries the idea that the work was completed in the past, continues to have effect in the present, and remains finished forever.

By wearing this shirt, you carry a reminder: not of striving, but of rest in what has already been done.

This youth tee is more than just a comfortable everyday essential—it's a meaningful piece that brings purpose and style together. Featuring the same cross design as our adult "Tetelestai" T-shirt, this version has the cross elegantly embroidered in gold thread on the left chest, offering a subtle yet powerful symbol of faith. Light, soft, and built for everyday adventures, it’s bound to become a favorite in any young believer’s wardrobe.
