Hi All, I would like to suggest another Jesus Youth prayer day on Friday the 24th of January, 2003. The timing and duration could be the same as before, namely 15 minutes at 7:30 AM, EST (Eastern Standard Time, i.e. NY time). Intention: Unification of the three Malankara Churches. As we know, we celebrate next week as the Christian Unity Week. All the three Malankara Churches have the apostolic tradition from St. Thomas the Apostle and have the same liturgical format. His Excellency, Isaac Mar Cleemis had a great article in the Christian publication "Sunday Shalom" in which he suggested a workable formula for the unification of these three Malankara Churches. I believe that if we fast and pray with great faith, this long cherished dream of many saintly people could be obtained from our Lord. I suggest that when we fast, we should fast our addictions and not just food alone. It is a very difficult thing to do. For example, for some, to abstain from TV on the Super Bowl day would be harder than abstaining from food for a whole week. Please respond with your comments. Thank You, Yours in Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Kurian Nellikunnel, New Jersey, USA.
