🌍Harvest of the Earth🌍

At this time of year we think about gathering in the harvest of the plants that grow in the soil and the animals that live in the sea or on the land. But we also use many raw materials in our everyday life, or to bring joy to our lives, that are mined or quarried (harvested from the Earth itself.

Clay too is harvested from the earth. People have been harvesting clay for thousands of years to make both useful and beautiful objects, ranging from giant urns for storing water, wine and oil to much smaller cup and mugs, or carefully decorated pieces of jewellery made as special gifts. 

If you have ever made a gift for someone ou love, you will know the joy that it can give to them - and you.

"There is more happiness in giving than receiving." (Acts 20:35)
