Welcome aboard a transformative journey as we venture into the profound concept of joining Jesus in the harvest. We're inviting you to envision our very own Bay Area, Tri-Cities of Fremont, Union City, Newark, and San Jose as a plentiful harvest. This is a call to arms, a call to gather people from all walks of life, to guide them away from sin and towards placing their faith in Jesus. 

As we walk together, we'll delve deep into the compassionate view of Jesus, a view that sees beyond mere spiritual needs. He sees us as complex beings tangled in a web of physical, spiritual, emotional, psychological, and social needs. What does it mean to care for someone holistically, the way Jesus does? We'll explore this together and reflect on how we, as followers of Jesus, can emulate this profound empathy. 

Finally, we'll reflect on the powerful words of Leon Morris as we grapple with the role and importance of the church's mission. Jesus's words echo in our hearts - the harvest is plentiful but laborers are few. The question we ask ourselves is, will we be those laborers? Will we take up the call to teach, proclaim, heal, and ultimately be shaped by Jesus's mission? So let's roll up our sleeves, let's get our hands dirty and let's join Jesus in the harvest, working tirelessly until Christ makes all things new.
