    24. So Moses went out and told the people the words of the Lord; and he gathered seventy elders of the people, and placed them all around the tent.

    25. Then the Lord came down in the cloud and spoke to him, and took some of the spirit that was on him and put it on the seventy elders; and when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied. But they did not do so again.

    26. Two men remained in the camp, one named Eldad, and the other named Medad, and the spirit rested on them; they were among those registered, but they had not gone out to the tent, and so they prophesied in the camp.

    27. And a young man ran and told Moses, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.”

    28. And Joshua son of Nun, the assistant of Moses, one of his chosen men, said, “My lord Moses, stop them!”

    29. But Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? Would that all the Lord’s people were prophets, and that the Lord would put his spirit on them!”

    30. And Moses and the elders of Israel returned to the camp. The Quails

    1. Now during those days, when the disciples were increasing in number, the Hellenists complained against the Hebrews because their widows were being neglected in the daily distribution of food.

    2. And the twelve called together the whole community of the disciples and said, “It is not right that we should neglect the word of God in order to wait on tables.

    3. Therefore, friends, select from among yourselves seven men of good standing, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may appoint to this task,

    4. while we, for our part, will devote ourselves to prayer and to serving the word.”

    5. What they said pleased the whole community, and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, together with Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch.

    6. They had these men stand before the apostles, who prayed and laid their hands on them.

    7. The word of God continued to spread; the number of the disciples increased greatly in Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests became obedient to the faith. The Arrest of Stephen

    1. Therefore, since it is by God’s mercy that we are engaged in this ministry, we do not lose heart.

    2. We have renounced the shameful things that one hides; we refuse to practice cunning or to falsify God’s word; but by the open statement of the truth we commend ourselves to the conscience of everyone in the sight of God.

    3. And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing.

    4. In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

    5. For we do not proclaim ourselves; we proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord and ourselves as your slaves for Jesus’ sake.

    6. For it is the God who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

    12. “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

    13. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

    14. You are my friends if you do what I command you.

    15. I do not call you servants any longer, because the servant does not know what the master is doing; but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have heard from my Father.

    16. You did not choose me but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that will last, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask him in my name.

    17. I am giving you these commands so that you may love one another. The World’s Hatred

    18. “If the world hates you, be aware that it hated me before it hated you.

    19. If you belonged to the world, the world would love you as its own. Because you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world—therefore the world hates you.

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.
