Parish Thanksgiving Day – Nov 23, 2014

My Dear Parishioners:
Once again this year’s Thanksgiving Day is approaching. Our parish is celebrating it on Sunday, November 23, 2014. As usual the Holy Qurbana, Sunday School Anniversary and Thanksgiving Day lunch will be in our church. I request you all to come with your family to this great festival.
Every year when we observe the Thanksgiving Day, many spiritual thoughts go through our mind. It is an opportunity for us to remember the miraculous ways through which God guided us. Our celebration is not limited to a turkey lunch. The greatest Thanksgiving is the Holy Eucharist itself which literally means thanksgiving. We thank God for giving us his Only Begotten son for our salvation. We owe eternally to God for that.
We all have faced a lot of uncertainty in life during our early days in America but in all those situations we saw the invisible hand of God. God made us prosper beyond even our own imaginations for which we should be thankful to Him. In gratitude to that we bring our offerings to God. I hope that you all will be able to bring the Big Offering to church helping the multi-faceted growth of our parish.
The Word of God as seen in Malachi 3: 10, “Bring all the tithes into the storehouse that there may be food in My house (temple), and try Me now in this, if I will not open the floodgates of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will not be room enough to store them….. And all nations will call you blessed for yours will be a delightful land.” Today we are enjoying that title, “a blessed parish”. Therefore, in humility let us come closer to God and brig our offerings to God.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving Day!

Fr. M. K .Kuriakose
