Re: Kooroyo Ordination

Dear Shiryl,

 

I speak on behalf of the entire youth of St. Peter's in congratulating you for being recommended for Ordination.

 

This might seem to be a 90 degree turn in life, but I am confident that God will lead you through all obstacles.  You did a wonderful job before your ordination and I am sure you'll continue to do the same after. You are an honor to St. Peter's and SPYC, and continue to inspire us all.

 

Please do not hesitate to ask for any help you might need with arrangements for the ordination.

 

With love and prayer,

 

Juff George

Good morning everyone,

I wanted to take this opportunity to inform that I have been recommended to be Ordained to the order of Kooroyo (Sub-Deacon).  H.E. Theethose Thirumeni, Jose Achen our vicar, as well as Thambi Achen, Joy Achen are all in support of this decision.  For me, this is a tremendous honor, a humbling experience, and a scary proposition.  But, I have learned over time, that God is an awesome God and that He is with all of us to show us where to go. 

The date for this event will be:

Saturday, October 10th, 2009

Time: TBD

Location: St. Peter's Church

Please try every effort to attend.  Truly, you all have been integral in my personal and spiritual development and it would be my honor if I could see you all on this day.  I ask that you all please take some time out to pray for me in my journey towards God.  For those who are interested in knowing, I will be participating in a 40-day lenten fast and observing prayers on the hours (6 am, 9 am, noon etc).  Again, I hope all of you can attend and I will try to take time to send invitations.  But consider this the first one.  You all are my family and would love to see you all front and center to witness this occasion.

In His Service,

Shiryl
