Meantime, Ahmadi Mar Thoma Parish heartily welcomes Rev. Harrison Chinnakumar and his family to Kuwait. May the Almighty Lord bless them both in their ministries abundantly.

Our Achen could not complete the 3-year period due to some unexpected and unprecedented problems arised out of the visa formalities.

A befitting farewell in honour of our Achen & Family will be given on Wednesday, 25 th April 2012 at St. Paul’s Church – Ahmadi immediately after the Holy Communion Service. All members are kindly requested to be present. To Rev. Varghese M. Thomas & Family “May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, may God hold you in the hollow of his hand and keep you always in good health”. We gratefully remember your contributions to the parish and the service/fellowship you extended to all of us these years.

MESSAGE FROM THE SECRETARY (2011/2012) Dear Brothers and Sisters, Warm greetings to you all in the precious name of our Lord & Saviour Jesus Christ! St. Paul, the Apostle, described true worship in Romans 12:1-2. "My brothers, because of God's…………………………is pleasing to Him and is perfect". This passage describes the manner of true worship: "present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice". Presenting our bodies means present to God all of ourselves. "By the renewing of your mind", we should renew our minds daily by cleansing them of the world's "wisdom" and replacing it with true wisdom that comes from God. We should not worship Him with our emotions. Emotions can be destructive, out-of-control forces unless they are shaped by a mind saturated in truth (1 Cori. 2:16). Renewal of mind can be achieved only by the Word of God. True worship is God-centered worship. Jesus tells us that true worshippers will worship God in spirit and in truth (John 4:24). This means we worship from the heart and the way God has designed. The highest form of praise and worship is obedience to Him and His Word. To do this, we must know God. Worship is to glorify and exalt God - to show our loyalty and admiration to our Heavenly Father. I am extremely proud to be a member of Ahmadi MTC. I firmly believe that I tried to contribute to the best of my ability for the overall growth of this Parish in one way or the other for the past 25 years. It is my personal dream that the Parishioners continue to be true worshippers of God by being obedient to Him and His Word. Let us continue to set an excellent example to other parishes and be a blessing to this Nation as well as the Mar Thoma Sabha and our native country. I take this opportunity to express extreme gratefulness to all the parishioners for extending myself and the 2011/2012 Kaisthana Samithy members your sincere co-operation, assistance and understanding throughout the year. May God bless us all. Thomas Abraham (Achenkunju), Secretary - 2011/2012 VISIT OF RT. REV. THOMAS K. OOMMEN (CSI Bishop): The newly consecrated bishop of CSI Church will be visiting our edavaka during the GOOD FRIDAY SERVICE. We extend a very warm welcome to Bishop Thomas K. Oommen and wish that his ministry be a blessing to CSI as well as other Christian Churches in India and elsewhere. VISIT OF REV. THOMAS CHERIYAN (DELHI DIOCESAN SECRETARY): It is a great privilege for Ahmadi Mar Thoma Parish that Rev. Thomas Cheriyan (Delhi Diocesan Secertary) will be visiting Kuwait in order to assist our Vicar, Rev. Varghese M. Thomas during the Passion Week. We take this opportunity to extend a very warm welcome to Rev. Thomas Cheriyan and wish that his service/presence from 29 th March until 10 th April 2012 be a blessing to all of us.
