Yesterday was our quarterly staff meeting. These are days when all our staff and volunteers meet. Did you know that during any given week over 120 people work in the ministries that occur in our centre, whether that be our shop, our Community Services or our youth and children's activities, as some examples.
While these meetings are mandated (in South Australia, a workplace of our size must have a quarterly OHS consultation), it provides a great opportunity for all our weekday workers to be together, to share in the vision for our community and to gather around the Word.
Yesterday in our devotional time we thought about our role as "Ambassadors". We remembered that every time that any of our staff encounter a member of our community they are ambassadors for Christ, our mission to the lost and The Salvation Army as a whole. When they speak, the community believes that The Salvation Army has spoken.
We have a great team at Marion. They represent us well. Lives are changed because of their work. Thank you Lord.
