Work As Worship

In the Old Testament era a group of people had their whole lives dedicated to the service of the tabernacle and later the temple (Numbers chapter 3). They are called the Levites and they were assigned to care for the needs of the place of worship. So sacred was this task special rites of consecration were performed beformed they could work in the tabernacle and no other tribe could participate. Like most of the Old Testament ordinances, this Law is no longer in effect at least within the Christian community. Today everyone with a love for the house of God has the chance to share in it's upkeep. Undoubtedly this is hard work but it is also an act of worship. This weekend members and friends of First Assembly of God of Florida City have the chance to offer their unique contribution to God's house as we host our church's workday tomorrow. The plan is do cleanup inside and out so bring your tools, cleaning equipment, etc. and let's work hard in from 8AM-1PM. Lunch will be provided. See you there!
