Ebenezer MTC

The Ebenezer Mar Thoma Church bought a place of worship, first of its kind after 25 years of their existence in New York as a worshiping community. As per the request made by the members of the Parish, the Diocesan Bishop, Rt. Rev. Dr. Geevarghese Mar Theodosius visited the new place and conducted a divine service on Sunday, January 22, 2012.

The Diocesan Bishop congratulated the Parish and informed them that they can use the present place of worship for worship services and that the formal consecration of the place would take place on March 31, 2012 subject to the permission of the Metropolitan of the Church. During the sermon Mar Theodosius reminded the people that it is unity Sunday and the message was based on St. John 17, the High Priestly prayer of Jesus.

He said that the glory of the Lord, the worshiping congregation enjoys, during the worship is a glory that is to be shown around particularly as the parish is moving to a new place of worship. After the worship there was Kaimuth service and the members gathered found time for a coffee fellowship. Rev. Benchamen George assisted the Bishop and expressed his joy to the Ebenezer Mar Thoma Church in acquiring a place of their own for worship.
