As we enter into 2012, I wish you all a happy and blessed New Year. The celebration of Christmas reminded that God is with us always. It has become the practice of so many worshiping communities to gather for a time of retreat and worship as we enter into the threshold of a new year. For so many people New Year is a time to make promises and resolutions which they intend to keep throughout the New Year and all the days of their lives.

Reformation: An Invitation For Sacramental Living
I am delighted that Chalanam, the publication of the Mar Thoma Theleological Seminary in Kottayam, is publishing a new edition to coincide with the 175th anniversary of the reformation within the Malankara Mar Thoma Church. I am also happy that the staff and students of the seminary have decided to publish this edition with the title Reformation: An Invitation For Sacramental Living. I wish the publication all success and pray that it will prove to be a blessing to all the members of the church and friends of the seminary.
