Keith Brown chose as his Sermon topic “Christ at the Door” based on Rev. 3.:20. These words tell how Christ will meet our needs today as he did long ago. He waits to be invited to come into our lives and He will supply our deepest personal needs and wants to take care of them for us. “Are we keeping Him out by our lack of faith and belief?” asked Mr. Brown, and he advised us to “Invite Him in, He will be our counsellor, our guide, our helper.” He is always knocking, waiting for us to open the door, no matter what the circumstances. We need His power day by day, hour by hour. Let us open the door of our hearts to Him today. The choir sang a lovely in the April under tha Helen Brown.
