Who Am I?
Hi there, my name’s Patrick Campanale. First and foremost, I’m a Christian, husband, and maker, in that order. Christ is King of my life and I have been a youth pastor at our local church since November 2021, loving every second of it!
My wife and I got married in September of 2019 and have lived in Middle Tennessee ever since, enjoying every moment of this journey called life together. And then there’s being a maker, a passion I didn’t discover until I was in my early 20s but have really enjoyed the journey of discovering my favorite techniques, meeting other makers, and creating items that bring massive smiles to customer’s faces whenever they open the package.
In 2024, I found my true passion in the maker-space: teaching. I’ve always loved teaching others how to do things, but in 2024, my passion for teaching others how to use their lasers and other machines really exploded.
I had the distinct honor to teach breakout sessions on xTool’s Creative Space at The Next Level Laser Conference in 2025, and that experience solidified the next step of my journey in becoming a maker who helps other makes succeed in their businesses!
Who’s my God?
I’m a Christian who believes in the One True God. I use the King James Bible and have attended nearly three years of seminary school with an emphasis on pastoral studies. I am heavily involved in my local church, where I am the youth pastor and help lead our audio/video department.
I believe that Jesus Christ came to this earth, died for my sin (and yours), was crucified on a cross, was buried for three days, and at the end, He rose again! If you have any questions about me, my faith, or God, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me!
Why Created Workshop?
Honestly, I went through many name ideas. My wife and I worked together to come up what we would want to call my woodworking business in 2021. Well, one morning I woke up and felt like God gave me a fantastic name for the business: Created Workshop. Where’d this come from? Well, I’m God’s creation that comes up with my own creations. Ephesians 2:10 says “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus…” Jesus Himself created us, and now I’m taking what He’s given me and using that talent to make beautiful works from God’s creation, the earth.
Also, a mission of Created Workshop is to spread the Gospel. In every package we send out, we include a little red Bible that has verses of salvation, assurance, and help. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a repeat customer or first-time buyer, you’ll receive one of these little Bibles. So far, we have shipped a package to every corner of the country, from Miami to Seattle, New York, and Beverly Hills. We’ve even had customers in Hawaii! That means the Gospel is being spread throughout the world with our packages, and it’s our hope and prayer that those little red Bibles are able to make a difference in someone’s life. If just one life is changed for the Lord, then that’ll be worth all the effort.
It doesn’t stop there, however. My goal is to share the Gospel as far and wide as I can. I intertwine my faith and business at its core, because without my Jesus, I wouldn’t have a business to run. So, you’ll see (or hear) me talk about my faith in my videos, trainings, on social media, or in podcasts that I’m a part of! Without God, my life would be utterly impossible. With God, nothing is impossible!
