Welcome To Melbourne Mar Thoma Church

A Brief History of Mar Thoma Church Melbourne Parish

The early beginning and growth of the Mar Thoma Congregation in Melbourne may be viewed in the context of several Episcopal visits to Australia from 1970. A homegroup of the Mar Thoma people was formed after the visit of Bishop Thomas Mar Athanasious in 1980. Initially, the homegroup met once a year and then it became twice yearly on a regular basis in various homes for Bible study and fellowship. Later we moved to a church hall in Vermont and started conducting Divine Services.

    1. When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him, “I am God Almighty; walk before me, and be blameless.

    2. And I will make my covenant between me and you, and will make you exceedingly numerous.”

    3. Then Abram fell on his face; and God said to him,

    4. “As for me, this is my covenant with you: You shall be the ancestor of a multitude of nations.

    5. No longer shall your name be Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you the ancestor of a multitude of nations.

    6. I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come from you.

    7. I will establish my covenant between me and you, and your offspring after you throughout their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your offspring after you.

    8. And I will give to you, and to your offspring after you, the land where you are now an alien, all the land of Canaan, for a perpetual holding; and I will be their God.”

    7. Beloved, I am writing you no new commandment but an old commandment that you have had from the beginning; the old commandment is the word that you have heard.

    8. Yet I am writing you a new commandment that is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining.

    9. Whoever says, “I am in the light,” while hating a brother or sister, is still in the darkness.

    10. Whoever loves a brother or sister abides in the light, and in such a person there is no cause for stumbling.

    11. But whoever hates a brother or sister is in the darkness, walks in the darkness, and does not know the way to go, because the darkness has brought on blindness.

    12. I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven on account of his name.

    13. I am writing to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young people, because you have conquered the evil one.

    14. I write to you, children, because you know the Father. I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young people, because you are strong and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one.

    1. Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.

    2. “Honor your father and mother”—this is the first commandment with a promise—

    3. “so that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.”

    4. And, fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

  •   

    13. People were bringing little children to him in order that he might touch them; and the disciples spoke sternly to them.

    14. But when Jesus saw this, he was indignant and said to them, “Let the little children come to me; do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of God belongs.

    15. Truly I tell you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will never enter it.”

    16. And he took them up in his arms, laid his hands on them, and blessed them. The Rich Man
