It's been a busy week at The Church of the Open Door!

Here are scenes from our people:

supporting Liberty and Justice for all on July 4,

Worship on July 6 with Rev. David Harkness preaching, and church social hall and classroom cleanup this week! Wow!

Sharing these words from David's Benediction:

"Life is short, and we do not have much time to gladden the hearts of those who make the journey with us.

So be swift to love and make haste to be kind."

- Henri Frederic Amiel (1821-1881)
