Dearly Beloved in Christ,
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
As we welcome the month of July, the summer season is in full swing, bringing with it the much-anticipated vacation time for our children. This time is often filled with joy, adventure, and relaxation. It’s a period when families can create lasting memories, and children have the opportunity to explore, learn, and grow in different ways outside of their regular routines. I encourage you to consider how we can make this vacation time not just fun, but also meaningful and enriching.
The Scriptures remind us in Psalm 118:24, “This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” Every day is an opportunity to rejoice, to find joy in the simple moments, and to share that joy with others. I encourage you to enjoy the blessings, and to spread kindness and compassion wherever you go.
As we gather for our various Parish events and services this month, let us do so with a spirit of unity and fellowship. Our community is a testament to the love of Christ, and each of us plays a vital role in nurturing and sustaining it. Together, we can create a place where everyone feels welcomed, valued, and loved.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank each of you for your continued support and dedication to our parish. Your involvement, whether through volunteering, attending services, or simply offering a friendly smile, enriches our community and strengthens our shared mission. The love and commitment you show contribute greatly to making our parish a vibrant and caring community.
May this month be a month of renewal, joy, and gratitude for all of us. Let us cherish the time we have together and use it to grow closer to God and one another. May God’s love and grace fill our hearts and homes with joy and peace. Let us be grateful for His countless blessings and strive to be instruments of His love and compassion in the world.
Let us make this time more meaningful by doing the following things.
-Strengthen our Family Bonds
-Explore God’s Creation
-Serve Others
-Nurture our Spiritual Growth
-Encourage Learning and Creativity of our children
May God bless us all abundantly
Rev. Santhosh Thomas,
Asst. Vicar
