“Remember the sabbath and keep it holy”.

A central joy of the christian is that pause we take on the sabbath. It is a rich privilege to share a weekly gathering, to unite in worship, to respect and rediscover His Word in a message and in the lives of fellow believers.

Most are aware that this liberty of expression is not a privilege automatically available across the world, and many are the missionaries who know they are called to go out into wider fields.

They do not go with words alone, but rather they offer a hands-on involvement that demonstrates the Theology of the Carpenter and the Tentmaker.

Builders and medics, teachers and carers, families and individuals, they work in the quiet confidence of a calling, and they are supported by the prayers of those who sent them.

We are grateful to them all.
