Rev. Keith Brown spoke on the theme "Peacemakers," When Christ was born, the angels sang of peace, and just before Christ died, He promised peace to His disciples. "Christ is the great Peacemaker" said Mr. Brown. "By His death on the Cross, He made peace between God and all those who will receive His gift of peace with God." But He calls us to be peacemakers too. We can do this by refusing to quarrel with those who stir up strife. A quiet, kind word can avoid a bitter dispute with the violence and tragedy it so often brings. Or we can refuse to continue a quarrel, and instead go and make things right with the person concerned. Jesus also wants us tow be peacemakers in helping to reconcile others. It is possible to do thisonlywhen we ouselves, have first come to God for reconciliation, and have let Him work is our lives to make us humble and merciful and pure in heart. "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God," said Jesus. The promise of God's blessing comes to all who do this important work of peacemaking in our needy world. They will be recognized as God's true children, and men also will call them blessed. Tonight, Wednesday at 8:30 the Sr. Choir will commence practicing Christmas music.
