Workers Unite!


by Janet Smith

Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: (NIV)
Well now, on Tuesday 4th June, we had 5 ladies come together to Spring clean the church kitchen and after 2 hours of cleaning and scrubbing, the kitchen gleamed and indeed we saw a good return for our labour!
Working together brings fun and fellowship. Age is no barrier either, one of our workers is in her 90s and still she came and worked along side us, (missing from the pictures!)
We read in the scriptures of the many who were blest with a long life and kept working for the Lord.
Here is a short list of them:
Abraham and Sarah, Jacob, Moses and Aaron, David, Job, Elizabeth and Paul just to name a few, there were many, many more and God blessed them.

Remember that God will use you at any age, and any stage. There is no age limit to the way He works in us or through us, His love never grows old and He never stops caring for us.




Work, for the night is coming,
Work through the morning hours;
Work while the dew is sparkling,
Work ’mid springing flow’rs.
Work when the day grows brighter,
Work in the glowing sun;
Work, for the night is coming,
When man’s work is done.




Work, for the night is coming,
Work through the sunny noon;
Fill brightest hours with labor,
Rest comes sure and soon.


Give every flying minute
Something to keep in store;
Work, for the night is coming,


When man works no more








Work, for the night is coming,
Under the sunset skies;
While their bright tints are glowing,
Work, for daylight flies.


Work till the last beam fadeth,
Fadeth to shine no more;
Work, while the night is dark’ning,
When man’s work is o’er
