Welcome to Immanuel Mar Thoma Church of Houston
For just as we have many members in one body and all the members do not have the same function, so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. - Romans 12:4-5.

From the Vicar’s Desk
Dearly beloved in Christ,
Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are in summer. The summer is hot. The children have a vacation. People travel for tours and to visit their dear ones. May God keeps everyone in His safe arms.
The world is mourning the shootout at Uvalde Elementary school. Let’s pray for the families of the victims. Let this may bring more sensible decisions and actions against the gun culture,
Rev. Santhosh Thomas Achen, Teena kochamma, Shreya, and Sandra have joined us. Let’s pray for Achen’s ministry in our parish.
In the month of June, the church meditates on the Holy Spirit. From the day of Pentecost, our meditation is focused on the Holy Spirit and the Holy Trinity. One of the most significant events in the New Testament is described in Acts 2. “When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place” (Acts 2:1). Then the Holy came upon the Apostles and the other believers on that day, and the first Jerusalem congregation was born: “that day about three thousand souls were added to them” (Acts 2:41).
Pentecost or the Feast of Shavout (Feast of weeks) is one of the three pilgrimages of the Jewish people. The festival marks the completion of the seven-week counting period between Passover and Shavout. In Jewish tradition, Shavout commemorates the giving of Torah to Moses. This was the most important event in the History of the Jewish people, the reception of Torah. On the same day, the New Testament remarkably places the coming of the Holy Spirit, the third one in the Trinity, the counselor, instead of a book, a person to hold us together as the body of Christ. The transformation that the disciples experienced after the reception of the Holy Spirit is so remarkable that made them bold and courageous to preach the good news and proclaim the resurrection of Jesus.
The church is called to get the power from above and go with the mission. During this month of the Holy Spirit, let’s dedicate our life to the renewal in the Spirit and in the mission.
Amen
