A word about work We are encouraged to do it We are encouraged to do it as we do everything “wholeheartedly” We are encouraged to stand out – salt and light It provides a great opportunity – people cannot get away! It is not popular (spirit of the age in the UK) It poses a problem for the Church – how can the Church join in?

What does God want us to do? Not to convert or “save” people. Only God can do that But called to be witnesses But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
