My beloved members of the Kuwait City Mar Thoma Family,
Greetings in the matchless name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!
I thank God Almighty for enabling me to serve as your vicar, and I humbly request your earnest prayers to support me in my responsibilities.
I’m grateful for your dedication and commitment to our parish’s activities and engagements. I hope and pray that you’ll continue to worship and work together for God’s glory and our parish’s wellbeing.
Our website showcases the vibrant community we’re building on Jesus Christ, the cornerstone. I’m delighted to see various activities, events, and ministries flourishing under our parish and organizations.
As a called-out community, we journey together in faith, set apart to witness Christ. In a rapidly changing world, witnessing Christ can be challenging. To be effective witnesses, we must prioritize our “with-ness” with God – cultivating intimacy, listening to His voice, and obeying His commands.
As we abide in Him, we become filled with His Spirit and empowered to share His love. The apostle John reminds us, “And the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son” (1 John 5:11). Our witness is not based on our strength or wisdom but on the indwelling presence of Christ within us.
Let us prioritize our “with-ness” with God, seeking His face, listening to His voice, and remaining in His presence. Then, our witness will be authentic, powerful, and transformative.
May God bless us as we seek to be “with” Him and help our parish continue to be a beacon of hope and joy, upholding the values of love, compassion, and service. May we become new paradigms of God’s witness, shining hope and joy to those around us.
Thank you for your tireless and prayerful efforts. May God bless us all as we walk together in faith and may His love and Grace be our constant companion.
With love and prayers,
Yours in Christ,
Feno Achen
On 30th May 1963, an official Kalpana received from Dr. Juhanon Mar Thoma Metropolitan approved the formation of a new Edavaka Kuwait Mar Thoma Parish and appointed Rev. M.O.Oommen as its first Vicar. The parish started with a membership of around 450 including children.
Our parish is the only Parish of the Mar Thoma Church which was extinct and which came to life again. During the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990 our parish ceased to exist. Our parishioners had gone through the real life experience of the Israelites walking through the deserts and reaching our motherland. God lead our people as under the clouds during the day and under the pillar of fire during the night.
Gracious Lord gave us a chance to return to Kuwait. Parish activities were again started in 1991. slowly the number our parishioners increased and it reached above 4500. Due to covid-19 pandemic crisis members are returning for good to their homeland. At present the strength of the parish is around 3100 members.
We have got now 40 prayer groups, and we have got all the church organizations well organized.
