A Message from Father Nathan
My dearest people who are close to my heart!
Prayerful greetings to you.
Greetings From India
My dearest friends, I hope everything is going great in the parish. Life here is hectic but fulfilling.
As Mother Theresa so beautifully puts it
“Life is worth living when it is lived for others”.
Almost everyday I am traveling a lot, meeting people. Feels tedious, but I am extremely glad that I could bring happiness in the life of others by my presence, which I feel happy about.
I was told that we could do better with the ABCD. May I request you all please come forward and pledge for the ABCD. As Fr. Tony mentioned when he introduced the ABCD, and I mentioned to you earlier, it’s the best way to support the diocese as well as any philanthropic activities of our diocese. Learn more about ABCD. Please do support to your maximum.
Missing you all. Looking forward to seeing you all. Please remember you are all remembered and prayed for everyday.
With lots love and at your service,
Father Sahayanathan Nathan
2020 ARCHBISHOP CHARITIES & DEVELOPMENT DRIVE
As we all know, we have launched the ABCD. Please come forward to make a pledge. Please support them.
May I take this wonderful chance to thank Fr. Tony for preaching for the ABCD. He was awesome. May God bless him and grant him a very long and peaceful life.
As he had mentioned, this is one of the best ways to support the diocese and all the activities of the Diocese like education of the seminarians, supporting the retired priests and reaching and teaching the most vulnerable in the society.
As we are all blessed, its good and our responsibility as well to support our blessing to our people. We will have a second collection to support the ABCD.
As Mother Theresa beautifully puts it
“GIVE TILL IT HURTS YOU”
Please remember it is not how big or small that matters but the heart to support the most vulnerable among us.
God bless your heart.

With lots of love and ever at your service,

Happy New Year. Goodbye, 2020. Hello, 2021. We have all experienced a most unusual year. Our lives have had to adjust to never-ending uncertainties that shake our personal and public lives. We have witnessed a shutdown in our thoughts and actions all over the world…

Merry Christmas to You! “JOY TO THE WORLD” Fourth Advent of Sunday. In this season…when the people were all tired, worried, concerned, and waiting with lots of perplexities, the Lord incarnated Himself and opened up a new world of love to His people.

Peace and happiness are like a light within each of our hearts. I believe and trust that It’s ONE of the gifts from God. It’s purely a gift from the Holy Spirit. It is light – that always glows and intensifies.

On November 2nd we are going to celebrate All Souls Day. This is a holy day set aside for honoring the dead. The day is primarily celebrated in the Catholic Church, but it is also celebrated in the Eastern Orthodox Church as well as a few other denominations of Christianity.

Every week as we profess our faith, we express… “I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic
Church and THE COMMUNION OF SAINTS.” The author of this letter to the Hebrews wrote. “Therefore since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us rid ourselves of every burden and sin that clings to us and persevere in running the race that lies before us while keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the leader and the perfecter of faith.” (12.1-2)

The Elections are quickly approaching. Our people have such a love for our nation – which is good. Let us love our nation. I have no other thought than
to say just this: “How blessed we are all, to live such a blessed country. God Bless America!
