    12. When you come to appear before me, who asked this from your hand? Trample my courts no more;

    13. bringing offerings is futile; incense is an abomination to me. New moon and sabbath and calling of convocation— I cannot endure solemn assemblies with iniquity.

    14. Your new moons and your appointed festivals my soul hates; they have become a burden to me, I am weary of bearing them.

    15. When you stretch out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you; even though you make many prayers, I will not listen; your hands are full of blood.

    16. Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean; remove the evil of your doings from before my eyes; cease to do evil,

    17. learn to do good; seek justice, rescue the oppressed, defend the orphan, plead for the widow.

    5. Slaves, obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling, in singleness of heart, as you obey Christ;

    6. not only while being watched, and in order to please them, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart.

    7. Render service with enthusiasm, as to the Lord and not to men and women,

    8. knowing that whatever good we do, we will receive the same again from the Lord, whether we are slaves or free.

    9. And, masters, do the same to them. Stop threatening them, for you know that both of you have the same Master in heaven, and with him there is no partiality. The Whole Armor of God

    10. Now he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.

    11. And just then there appeared a woman with a spirit that had crippled her for eighteen years. She was bent over and was quite unable to stand up straight.

    12. When Jesus saw her, he called her over and said, “Woman, you are set free from your ailment.”

    13. When he laid his hands on her, immediately she stood up straight and began praising God.

    14. But the leader of the synagogue, indignant because Jesus had cured on the sabbath, kept saying to the crowd, “There are six days on which work ought to be done; come on those days and be cured, and not on the sabbath day.”

    15. But the Lord answered him and said, “You hypocrites! Does not each of you on the sabbath untie his ox or his donkey from the manger, and lead it away to give it water?

    16. And ought not this woman, a daughter of Abraham whom Satan bound for eighteen long years, be set free from this bondage on the sabbath day?”

    17. When he said this, all his opponents were put to shame; and the entire crowd was rejoicing at all the wonderful things that he was doing. The Parable of the Mustard Seed

Message From Vicar In Charge: Rev. Biju P. Simon

Dearly beloved in Christ, Greetings in the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit, one true God.As a Church, we are entering into the season of Pentecost.The Feast of Pentecost reminds us that the Holy Spirit is a strengthening Spirit, commissioning us to bear witness to Him in the world. It is a Spirit of authority and a Spirit of reconciliation, convincing the world about Sin, Righteousness, and Judgment. In June, we also celebrate Fathers Day, a time to honor the leaders, intercessors, and role models in our families.

Message From Youth Chaplain : Rev. Jess M. George Achen

Glory be to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit - One true God! Greetings in the precious name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! As we approach Christmas, our hearts are filled with joy and anticipation, celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, who came into the world to bring salvation and hope. The Apostle Paul, in his letter to the Philippians (2:5-11), provides profound insight into the true significance of Christmas through the concept of kenosis, which means self-emptying.
