VICAR'S MESSAGE - JANUARY 2010

"And I will always guide you and satisfy you with good things. I will keep you strong and well. You will be a garden that has plenty of water,like a spring of water that never runs dry". - Isaiah 58:11
 
 My Beloved Parish Members,
 
Once again God has blessed us with the privilege to enter a New Year . Our life and prosperity is the gift of God . See how great is our Saviour?How  great is his protection and guidance ?Do we see the glory of God ? We have to see the glory of God in our day today life. If we fail to recognize that we fail to accept Jesus Christ our Personal Saviour. In this New year we need to come back to strong faith ,love and dedication .This is the time to re-dedicate ourselves to Him and beg for His pardon .Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ renews and sustains us.When we truly understand Him we will be more faithful ,loyal and dedicated to his call and will. As we start to walk into the new  hours, weeks ,months,  and year ,let us look back with thankful heart and remember his blessings which was showered upon us.
 
I hope this New Year  will be a blessed year for all of you. Last year by the grace of God we were able to purchase a home (parsonage) for St Andrews Mar Thoma church. On December 13th our Diocesan Bishop Rt Rev Dr Geevarghese Mar Theodosius Episcope dedicated the new Parsonage. Let us thank God for strengthening us to do this venture. Now we have to complete the church renovation. The work on the church is almost complete. Thank you for your prayer help and co-operation.
I also really appreciate our youths ,because they collected more than $16,000 for new Sound System. This shows their dedication ,concern and  love to our parish.
 
 I WISH YOU A HAPPY NEW YEAR
 
God bless you all
Yours In His Service 
Benjamin achen
