After attending this year's Leadership Conference and getting to know many of the delegates from around the Diocese, I thank and praise God for blessing the Mar Thoma Church with so many talented and dedicated youth leaders. There are many men and women among us who have recognized that serving the Lord through the mission activities of the church is a way to spread the good news of Jesus Christ to others (in and outside our community) and to share His love with those who have not experienced it. I hope and pray that the Mar Thoma Church will continue to provide opportunities for youth leaders to work towards the mission of the church (to know Him and to make Him known) and that there will never be a shortage of youth to respond to His call!
