A Message from Father Nathan

My dearest people who are all close to my heart!
Lots of love, blessings, and prayers to you all.

Thank You!

Thank You for the Birthday Wishes

Let me take this wonderful opportunity to thank you from the bottom of my heart for making my birthday so special! Thank you for your birthday wishes, gifts, and prayers. You always make me feel so special. Birthday cake, balloons, cards, currencies, and calories what a joy! Thank you again.

Thank You for your Prayers for My Mother

Thank you again for your prayers and support for my mother. She is still under medication. The doctors are not sure, what’s wrong with her. They are trying to eliminate one after the other, but they are not able to understand what the problem is. Please continue to pray for her, I am of the belief that prayers can do wonders. Let us lift our hearts to the Lord. Our kneeling will make my stand. Please continue to pray for her.

She is one of the finest people in my life. I am saying this not just because she is my mother. All mothers are great! A mother’s love cannot be replaced. My mother was a widow since her thirties. I have noticed how she brought forth all of us, into then a male-dominated culture. A strong woman, pious, straightforward, self-sacrificing, disciplined – above all – a God-fearing lady. Whatever good that you find in her I would say that she bestowed it to me.

Bringing up five boys and a girl, as you know, it’s not an easy task. Her commitment and focus were on the children. She always took great care of us surrendering her whole life to God. I cannot bear to see her suffer like this. She had carried enough and now more crosses in her life. I cannot see her again partaking in the suffering of Christ.

Please Continue Your Prayers

Please do assist her with your prayers. I thank all of you who are praying for her. Thank you for your support and concern at this difficult time for me and my family.

God bless you all.

With lots of love and blessing.

Ever wanting to be faithful to your service.

—Fr. Sahayanathan Nathan

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)
