We are the workers,
serving the Kingdom,
sharing Christ’s message
out in the world;
We are the wheat,
ready for harvest,
the ripe fields ready,
waiting for our God.
Sitting in the fields, the vineyards,
growing where we are planted
sowing seeds, fruit
of the Kingdom, of God;
Sharing the message
where we are planted,
being God’s light
out in the world.

we are the workers, the wheat
July 31, 2015
sitting in the fields
the interior tin wall of
Stetson Memorial United Methodist Church
are shafts of wheat;
the crown molding top of the walls
are the heads of the wheat.
&
On the walls of the sanctuary, you will see names of
saints who have gone before us in the stained glass but you will also see
vertical stalks all around us. The tinsmiths put these there to remind us we
are to the wheat ripe for harvest, ready to be gathered in by God. Look toward
the ceilings, the heads of the wheat are ready. There are also sections of the
wall and ceiling where we see the shape of vines, as we are connected in the
vine. There are places on the ceiling that have the number 7 for perfection,
the number 12 for the tribe of Israel and the number 40 for the forty days, the
forty years, etc. There is the shape of shepherd staffs on either side of the Good
Shepherd stained glass. There is an arch like the shape of the dome leading us
into the chancel.
