Praise@Work serves to satisfy the thirst for knowledge of its members. We have a library of books for use by members as well as actively solicit speakers to give our members talks to increase their knowledge of our faith. The following sections are some material that you may also find useful.
fruits of the holy spirit
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness,
goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such there is

with its passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let us also
walk by the Spirit." Galatians 5:22-25
