" Christmas ! The very word brings joy to our hearts. The joy of brightening other lives, bearing each others burdens, easing loads and supplanting empty hearts and lives with generous gifts becomes for us the magic of Christmas".
With the Blessings of Almighty, Kuwait Mar Thoma Parish, the biggest parish in Malankara Mar Thoma Syrian Church of Malabar celebrated Christmas, the birth of Jesus, in the most befitting manner. More than 3,000 Kuwait Mar Thoma parishioners and people from sister churches gathered in the magnificent splendor of Marina Hall Abbassiya to celebrate the great birth of The Saviour. The beautiful decorations decked in and around, created the ambience of an exciting celebration.
Mellifluous carols rendrered by the Junior and Senior Choir of the Parish spellbound the audience. The brilliantly orchestrated and gracefully sung carols reflected the Humble Birth of The Savior and brought a worshipping atmosphere to the devotees. Adv. John Thomas, Vice President of the Parish, in his Christmas message said that the meaning of Christmas is the delibrate plan of God to send His only Begotten Son to earth, to redeem everyone as His own son. The arrival of Santa along with the shepherd’s carol singing group, created a great fervor in the auditorium as it brought nostalgic memories of yesteryears of Christmas celebrations in our motherland.
Kudos to each and every Choir members, especially to choir leaders Mr. Thomas Mathew (Senior Choir) and Mr. Vinod T Jacob (Junior Choir) for their magnificent effort to make the day a blessed one.
