When Christ said, "Go therefore and make disciples
of all nations..." he commissioned us to transform
the parish into an agency of Christian outreach.
The New Zealand culture offers us great opportunities
to conduct successful parish renewal, outreach and
evangelism. It is our duty and obligation not to
hide our light under the bushel, but to let it shine
before all people. We must let our light so shine
- because unless people see in us the light and
the love of Christ, they will not believe.
The
active Sunday school, Youth Movement, Ladies Auxiliary
(Martha Mariyam Samajam) and regular prayer meetings
provide the spiritual nourishment for our faithful.
In
our multi-ethnic society, SDIOC is the community's
interface linking people, culture and values through
Pray, Worship, Serve
