Being an agricultural community gives us a unique opportunity to connect our work with our faith. There are rich biblical references and image that lend themselves to that.
By having a Seed Blessing service, we are not asking for bumper crops or wealth, rather we are acknowledging our work, regardless of what type of work it is, as a gift from God and affirming our participation in God’s creation and our workmanship in being created in Christ’s image.
“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Ephesians 2:10
Bring a tool, a business card, anything as we dedicate our work to God.
