A Message from Father Nathan

My dearest people closest to my heart!
God bless you and your generous heart.

The Church Tower Project has been officially approved

 

“Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the Lord guards the city, the guard keeps watch in vain.

Psalm 127/1

With joy and gratitude, I want to share the wonderful news that our Church Tower Project has been officially approved by the city!

This long-awaited step marks a new chapter in the life of the parish – a visible sign of faith, unity, and hope rising among us. At the same time, we look forward with great anticipation to the Diamond Jubilee Celebration – our 60th Anniversary as a parish family!

This is a time to thank God for the generations of faith that build our community and to renew our commitment to live as “living stones” built into a spiritual house: (1Peter 2:5)

Plans for our Jubilee year and related community events are already taking shape, and your thoughts, ideas, and initiatives are warmly welcome. Together, let us celebrate God’s goodness and build a future rooted in faith and fellowship. We are also delighted to welcome back our winter parishioners!

You were deeply missed, and it is a blessing to have you among us again.

“I thank my God every time I remember you.”

–Phillippians 1:3.

May the time you spend here be filled with love, peace, and holiness. Let us journey together, grateful for the past, faithful in the present, and hopeful for the future

Ever wanting to be faithful to your service,

— Fr. Sahayanathan Nathan

It’s election mode time. Everything we say and do will be perceived with a political outlook. But at the same time as the Church, we need to be the voice of Christ. Mother Teresa on the “Great Destroyer of Peace – Abortion. The passage below is the voice of Mother Teresa at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington D.C. on February 5, 1994. I believe her wisdom and concerns are so relevant today. Here you go.
