Open Door
Open door is a class of mature men and women. Each of us is in a different stage of our faith journey. Our focus is to study, learn and grow in our faith. We investigate different topics throughout the year with an environment of judgement free discussions. Our name means that we are open to all wishing to enter. It is important to us as Christians to live our faith through loving others as God has taught us, and as God loves us. “This is my commandment that you love one another as I have loved you.” John 15:17 ESV
