I know, the following comment will not be addressed by the concerned! Still:

The commment ia about the LOGO. There was much hype created on this LOGO creation, but at the end, the LOGO looks like very cimilar to a POLITICAL PARTY LOGO or a FLAG. This shows the lack of creativity.

If I say that we need
100 Elephants
100 Drums
100 Band Set
100 Bishops
100 firecrackets
& so on for the centenary celebrations, I am sure there wlll be many who will support it.

But I would sincerely suggest to read thru the sermon of Rev.Fr. Jacob Kurien, on the occassion of 2008 Association meet at Pampakuda. Herald has published it. I would appreciate if MTV could give a link to that so that people can read and understand the concept of the dream we should have for our church, "my church my dream"

celebrations are part of malankara orthodox church always..but are we taking God also with us to celebrate..?? think..christianity and christian values are not all about band,brumset etc..in this centinary let all orthodox church members turn to lord and pray & work for jesus..its not 100 years its all about what we did for the Lord during dese years..some fights in parishs,cases,murders,doing all sorts of bad things to get top positions..!!!..is that God wants... absolutely NOOOO.. Let others see God through Us in this centinary...

The holy synod as mentioned above can canonise a saint for the church.. i think pampasy thirumeni is apprpriate for the title ''Saint''...as many are awre of his miracles and simple life..

The church should move its Head office to Central part of India, if not Delhi. Also, Establish Kerala head office in Kochi. We'll have to do it now or later. Why not at the earliest?

One area we shoud stress is MEDIA.

There should be a magazine (a monthly) that shall be made avaailable to all tehfamilies of malankara wherever they are!)

How to Finance teh magazine
1. Since it is reaching all teh Orthodox families, we should give priority fo matrimonia advertisements, Death anniversary ads, thanksgiving etc in it. (make them a mandatory) . Just like in the old testament poor got concessions for sacrifices, we should offer them rates that are affordable.

2. Subscription rate shall be applid to all those who are capable. Any poor who are unable to subscribe shoudl get it free. Subcription can be apid along with church subscription paid in churches. Ensure that it reaches everyone.
3. Establish a CORPUS FUND for it. The interst of the amount can be used for subsidies fpr poor subscribers.

Church should establish its HQ at Delhi, and all the States in India should have a Remban Cor episccoppa, as our rep. SHOULD THINK ABOUT It.

Malankara Orthodox TV said...

A common commence on some Rev.Fr`s writings here in this site. The first priority should be given to all our church leads (metrans and priests )to work as per the Lord Jesus words and follow his path.A common man needs sincere guide and support for their daily spiritual needs,which is ignored now,we should be more practical towards God almighty,and serve the poor and needy.All Bhadhrasanna Metrans should be transferd every after 05 years compulsory like priests every after 03 years,then the H.H.and church will have proper control on Bhadhrasanams.Now each metrapolitans are acting as Catholicos for their area.The Holy church must have a common fourum for its members in various locations like Devalokam under H.H direct control.We can make zonal divisions .Our preiests need proper true counciling for stopping their eagerness to become financially rich.The day they become rich they stop towards poor and needy,they can not walk to its church member house.If you provide car /Auto they may come. Members need service, Achan pattom should not be given to some one comming with recommendation and selection should not be based on familly back ground. This forum should not be given a space for criticizing the Holy church and H.H.After reading all news published in this site it looks very bad even force to think are we serving this church are we giving our hard earned offerings for all these types of support.

This is going to be a glorious ocassion for all of us. We must follow the NINUVA example to celebrate the centenary. I believe that is the need of the hour. We have five cannonical lents. In connection with the centenary, the SYNOD shoul declare a month long special lent which should be used by all for a total repentence and prostrating before our LORD for all what we have done all these years against Him. Let us try to purify ourselves and be totally transformed so that we can gain strength to follw His commandments.

Abraham said...

Let us mention only about the organisations of the celebrations here. Our responsibilities are there always with us.

If the church leadership tries now, it wont be difficult to bring the worldwide orthodox leaders here at the mahasammelanam. We should invite Dmitri Medvedev, the President of the strongest Orthodox country and a proven faithful of the church. His visit will help the celebration to get enough attention all over India. Almost all the orthodox church heads should be present.
