September: It’s Fall Ya’ll: The Harvest is Plentiful

Matthew 9:37-38  37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; 38 therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”

• September 22: 🚜 Workers in the Harvest Day: 

  • Dress like you're ready to work the harvest!

  • Farmers, gardeners, farm animals, scarecrows—or simply country/farm attire.

• Jesus wasn't really talking about crops. He was talking about people.

  • We are the workers. God has placed each of us  in a “field”— classroom, team, neighborhood, family, friend group—and sharing Christ begins right where we are.

  • Take the  “Harvest Challenge:” 

    •  Pray for ONE person in your life who needs Jesus. Look for ONE opportunity to show that person Christ's love. Be ready to share the reason for the hope you have.
