Mr. Ball's post -Easter theme took the congregation to the Sea of Tiberias where the Risen Lord Appeared to Peter and the other disciples as they were fishing. Memories returned to three years before when'Jesus, begin- ning his ministry, called these same men from their fishermen's nets to link their lives with His and become fishers of men. In one of the most memorable moments Jesus spent with Peter, He asked, "Do you love Me?". After asking the question three times, Jesus received the an- swer, "Lord, You know my heart." The challenge made by Jesus to His disciples was "Feed My Sheep" and this is the challenge to the Christian world today. "If we love Jesus it will radiate from our being and we will be a living witness." GORRIE Mr. and Mrs. John Wilson of Fordwich spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Haskins.
