Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Greetings to you in the matchless name of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ.

I consider this is my privilege and honour to welcome you to our parish website. I express my sincere gratitude for spending your valuable time to know what the Lord is doing in and through our parish.

I praise God for the freedom which we enjoy here to worship and serve the Lord Almighty. It is my prayer that Lord may bless this country and helps it to overcome from the present crisis.

In John 12:24, we read “Unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies. It remains only as a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds”. To produces a fruit by 30, 60 & 100 times it needs an up gradation from grain to seed. If it is a grain, it may remain as same forever; it may die after some days. But if it grows in to the level of seed it can produce many grains and seeds.

I wish that God may help each one of us to grow from grain to seed, seed to plant and from plant to fruitfulness. Looking back over this year we can see the marvelous working of God and how his hand led us through every situation. God protects us in the Palm of his hand, every moment of our lives.

May God continue to Bless St.Thomas Evangelical Church of India, Dubai Parish and help each one of us to grow in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Yours in the service of the Lord

Rev. Sam Mathew
