A Message from Father Nathan

My dearest people who are close to my heart!

Prayerful greeting and lots of love to you. 

Right away I wanted to inform to you that I DO MISS YOU ALL.  The church without you is not the same.  I feel extremely bad that we need to undergo this but please remember that THIS WILL ALSO PASS SOON. 

Let us pray. Let us hit the heaven with our knee that the Lord who won victory over death and resurrected and lifted the world himself.  May it also resurrted His people form this biggest tension and turmoil.

What I have learned from this turmoil is that God is the author of our life never ever us. 

I also learned that life is worth living in loving our neighbor and caring for one another rather than thinking that I am extremely busy.  When we also settle down and slowdown our life. 

I believe and take it as though we could lead our lives, with all these modern stresses and depressions that we are all talking about of our hectic lives.

Finally, as St. Paul beautifully puts it

If Christ hath not been raised, then is our preaching vain, your faith is also vain”. 1 Cor 15:14 

Yes no doubt Christ did die for our sins and he has washed away all the stains of sin of the world by his pecious blood.  Alleluia.

May Christ who resurrected from the dead, may he lift the world now from this big crisis and virus.

May he deliver us the the Virus fear.  Virus of fear that doesn’t allow others to see them as the child of God.  May He help us also to care and love others.

Happy Easter.  May you and your family  enjoy the joy of the resurrection.

Christ is resurrected from the dead alleluia.  Happy Easter!

May God Bless You All.

 

Please Stay Safe and healthy!
Ever at your service.
With lots of love and blessing,

 

—Fr. Sahayanathan Nathan

Tthe Roman Catholic Church was established by Christ when Jesus directed the apostle Peter as the head of the church. This belief is based on Matthew 16:18 when Jesus Christ said to Peter:

“And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock, I will build my church, and gates of Hades will not overcome it.”
