Throughout the past years, our Diocese has experienced significant demographical and generational growth representing a new dynamic for relevant contextual ministries. As such, the linguistic need of the younger generation to creatively discern the ministry of the Word is essential for spiritual sustenance and renewal of the community. Towards that end, under the guidance of the Youth Chaplain, “New Year Revival 2010”, a two-day English Convention and several workshops were conducted and coordinated by the youth and young families of the Dallas, Texas area Mar Thoma Churches on January 1st - 2nd 2010.
