TimeValue = Instance.new("NumberValue")

local PlayerGui = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.PlayerGui local TextLabel = PlayerGui.ScreenGui.TextLabel

while true do

     TimeValue.Value = 6

     TextLabel.Text = "Time:".. TimeValue.Value..":00".. "AM" .. "[Day Shift]"

     wait(30)

     TimeValue.Value = 7

TextLabel.Text = "Time:" .. TimeValue.Value..":00".. "AM" .. "[Day Shift]"

    wait(30)

     TimeValue.Value = 8

TextLabel.Text = "Time:" .. TimeValue.Value..":00".. "AM" .. "[Day Shift]"

Simple look into how you would go about doing this.

Server Script

game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent:FireClient(player,'I love hamburger')

Local Script

game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(text)
    script.Parent.TextLable.Text = text
end)

Here is a deep dive into the topic of remote events/functions

https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/articles/Remote-Functions-and-Events

Edit: Reply to your comment :)

when doing GUI clocks the counter is housed on the server and the display is on the client...if that makes since

so on the server you would run the clock function and fire a remote function for every second

for x = 60,0,-1 do
    for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers())do
        game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteFunction:FireClient(x)
        wait(1)
    end
end

on the client you would update the display

game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteFunction.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(x)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text = x
end

This would allow the clock to be synced across all client, the only delay would be client load times(this would not effect any other client)
