Message from Vicar

Dearly beloved in Christ

Loving greetings in the Precious name of our Lord & Saviour Jesus Christ

In the Lent season and especially in the Passion Week we could meditate upon the

great sacrifice on the Cross and the Salvation and its pain behind it. We could

celebrate the Easter as the celebration of great hope.

We are going to meet together for the Annual General Body on 28th

of this month.

After that the new Kaisthana Samithi will enter in to the service. I would like to give

Thanks to the Almighty God for the Blessings which He showered on us through the

Executive Committee which served the Lord thorough our Parish in the last

Financial Year. Everyone in their capacity had done well. May God continuously

help them to do more and more for the glory of the Almighty and for the

development of our Parish and the church as a whole. Special thanks to all of you.

The one who enter in to the service may prepare to take over the charge with full

dedication to the Lord and faithful to the community. I wish them all the blessings.

Our Beloved Rev.Genil Abraham Achen and Rev.Varghese M Thomas Achen and

families are going back to India after their sincere services here in Kuwait. Our

special regards and prayers I offer to them. May God Almighty help them to do

more and more for the glory of His name, wherever they sent.

We, the Kuwait Center could celebrate the 60th

year of the celebration of the Holy

Communion service in Kuwait on April 20th

. Our loving Valiya Metropolitan

Tirumeni & Our Suffragan Metropolitan Tirumeni gave leadership to us in that great

historical event in Kuwait.

May the Peace and Blessings of our Lord Jesus be with you all.

With loving regards and prayers

Yours in Christ Service

Rev A.Y.Varughese
