Sept 8, 2016 : The Feast of the birth of our Lady and the feast of the harvest (novem bel'lem) was celebrated with solemnity. The celebration began with honoring the donors. The new harvest was later blessed by the Parish Priest and later was brought in procession from the gate to the Church. As we thanked the Lord for all his blessings, Fr Basil offered the Eucharist along with Fr Kenneth in thanksgiving and for the intentions of all the Donors and Parishioners.

Mary our mother, leads us to God through her example of faith. Her unconditional surrender to God when she said, 'thy will be done' is an example of her grounded faith in God. Another example of faith is the life of a farmer, who trust in God fro timely rains and weather. This day calls us to reflect on our faith and deepen it, especially in times of trouble and pain. The Geneology of our Lord shows that God carefully plans for our salvation and is indeed truthful and faithful to his promises. All we need to have is faith.

Happy feast to you and you family. May our Mother help us to increase our faith.
