Philippians 3:10-11
“ I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his
resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like
him in his death, and so, somehow, attaining to the
resurrection from the dead”.
After the resurrection, Jesus could have shown his might before
those who led him to the Cross. But Jesus did not do that. He never
made his appearances to those who sentenced him death on the
cross, not to Herod or Pilate, not to any priest or Pharisee, nor any
scribe or soldier, but to those who really loved him, to those who
really hoped for him and believed in his promises. He appeared to
Mary Magdalene, then to his disciples, to the doubting Thomas, to
the debating disciples on their way back home to Emmaus.
The Good Friday Service held with much serenity and there was
meditation of the cross for both English and Malayalam Services.
The Vicar assisted with James Rajesh, Leon, Pritam, Jelin, Ashish
preached on the seven verses from the Cross. Special thanks to all
who led the devotions, readings and prayers during the holy week
services.
Special thanks to the Choir and the Junior choir who rendered
songs. Thanks to Ashok Varkey & Graceline Justin for training the
junior Choir and I thanks the parents for their cooperation.
