You can compare the families from the older quilt to the names that are on the 125th anniversary quilt. You can spend hours looking at autograph quilts. THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 26, 2003. PAGE 3. Holy, Lord God Almighty. For the children's story. Rev. Eugen Bannerman had a picture of Jesus knocking at the door. He asked the children what they saw in the picture. He had many answers, one was the light around Jesus and one was there is no door latch on the door Jesus could not open the door from the outside. The meaning of this by the artist was that we have to let Jesus come into our house or heart by opening the door for him. The dramatized lectionary reading was from John 18: 33-37, those taking part were Wyatt Bearss, Amelia Carter-Brown and Rachelle Ducharme. Rev. Bannerman’s message to the adults was Potpourri of Spiritual miscellany. He gave 11 suggestions for a healthy spiritual life.
