GROW IN FAITH
Dead · Refused DEAD/APPLICATION/Refused/Dismissed or Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that “GROW IN FAITH” is a dead service mark that was abandoned after the owner, John P. Parkin, failed to file a Statement of Use or Extension Request following the Notice of Allowance. The mark was registered on the Principal Register and covered a wide range of retail gift‑shop and mail‑order services involving picture frames, framed prints, artwork, pottery, greeting cards, baby clothing, and various household items, all listed under class 035. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same class, especially for businesses selling or advertising similar gift‑shop or mail‑order products. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording in all contexts. No enforcement activity—oppositions, cancellations, or court actions—is recorded. The last meaningful event was the abandonment on December 5, 2002. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is no longer enforceable, but the specific goods and services listed still represent a potential area of concern.
