Bishop Malayil Sabu Koshy Cherian Leads the Confirmation Service at CSI Parish, Sharjah

It was a great joy to see that 51 teenagers were confirmed at CSI Parish, Sharjah, by Rt. Rev. Dr Malayil Sabu Koshy Cherian, Bishop in Madhya Kerala Diocese, while around 1200 believers took part in the holy worship service. Sincere thanks to the Bishop, Dr Jessy Sarah Koshy Kochamma, the parents of the confirmands who toiled hard to make the event a well-organised and memorable one, the Church committee for the guidance, the members of the church for their prayerful participation, and above all, the richest blessings from God Almighty. The confirmands, who are a bunch of enthusiastic as well as disciplined teenagers, underwent training for the last several months online and offline, which culminated on the day of the confirmation- 5th May 2024- when the Bishop exhorted them to lead a life worthy of the Christian calling. A few candidates from Jebel Ali, Al- Ain and Dubai also joined who were trained by Rev. Charles M. Jeril and Rev. Raju Jacob. Rev. P. V. Joseph, Rev. John C. George, and Rev. Fr. Jacob Kalluvila participated in the worship service. The confirmands are seen in the photo with the Bishop and the Church Committee members of CSI Parish, Sharjah.
