Honoring Labor Day: Finding Rest, Purpose, and Community
As Labor Day arrives, many of us look forward to a long weekend with family, good food, and a chance to rest. Beyond the backyard barbecues and time off, Labor Day is a reminder of something deeper: the value of hard work and the importance of caring for one another.
At WeShare, we see these same themes woven into the heart of our community. Every day, members come together to share in one another’s medical burdens, lifting financial weight and offering encouragement through life’s challenges. Just as Labor Day honors the contributions of workers who built our nation, WeShare honors the contributions of each member who chooses generosity, compassion, and shared responsibility.
The Balance of Work and Rest
Scripture reminds us, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord” (Colossians 3:23). Work is meaningful, but so is rest. Labor Day reminds us that slowing down and restoring our strength is part of living a balanced, faithful life. By taking time to recharge, we are better equipped to serve our families, our communities, and God’s kingdom.
Building Together Through Sharing
The work of building something worthwhile is never done alone. Just as workers across history united to improve lives for future generations, WeShare members unite to build a community where no one has to carry the weight of medical costs alone. Your monthly contributions do more than cover expenses. They reflect the heart of Labor Day itself: standing together, carrying burdens, and creating a better tomorrow.
A Call to Gratitude
This Labor Day, we invite you to pause and give thanks for the ability to work, the blessing of rest, and the strength of community. We are grateful for each of you, and for the way your participation helps make health care more affordable, compassionate, and faith-driven.
From all of us at WeShare, may your Labor Day be filled with rest, joy, and the reminder that together, we are stronger.
