Vicar’s Message
Dearly Beloved in Christ, The agony and ecstasy of being in Melbourne, Australia for one year (May 4th 2012) is celebrated with thankfulness to God Almighty and thanking you for the love and affection. We are heartily welcomed, fondly cared and tenderly supported in the ministry in our Parish. Your prayer and support makes the difference. This is the time the most popular hymn of Isaac Watts, ‘O God our help in ages past’ reverberates in my mind with gratitude. “O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home. Under the shadow of Thy throne, Still may we dwell secure. Sufficient is Thine arm alone, And our defence is sure.” This hymn is a paraphrase of Psalm 30, a Psalm of Moses where he grounds his faith in God Almighty. The Agony and Ecstasy in Following Christ Kathelene and David Wood are both Methodist ministers serving in Lancashire, UK. Before entering the ministry, Kathelene was a special needs teacher. Much of David’s ministry has been in theological education. Part of their life’s demands has been for Peter, their son with profound multiple learning difficulties. Kathelene and David Wood recollect: ‘Life with our profoundly disabled son has been a hard road. Love for him has meant an acceptance (sometimes very grudgingly!) of the lifestyle he brings. Yet the struggle has been life changing. We have learned and experienced so much of God, faith and joy.’ In and through the agony, there has been ecstasy. The images we come across in life are profound and the Bible gives us insights and illuminates our way marred by difficulties. Jesus said: ‘I’m the way, the truth and the life.’ Jesus is the one who leads us through death on a way into the unknown. It is part of following the MASTER and taking up the Cross and fulfilling his commission. The Agony and Ecstasy in Bereavement It is a really hard time for the Mar Thoma Church, when we lost a young and promising Achen through an accident. We need to pray for Rev. Mathew Thomas’s (47) family for sustaining help and comfort. We also bid farewell on Friday to our beloved George Mathew Uncle (87), father of Satish and Suresh, who was called to eternity on Thursday (May 03) after an accidental fall. He lived a life full of hope and enthusiasm for the Lord. This was a celebration of life. In man there is always ‘angst’ or ‘anxiety’ which implies that he is not in control of things. There is power above him. In 1 Peter 5:7, we read, “Cast all your care upon Him for he cares for you.” Isaac Watts reminds us, “Time, like an ever rolling stream, Bears all its sons away; They fly, forgotten, as a dream, Dies at the opening day.” Yes we have our anxieties and worries as human beings, yet we have the assurance that there is God who bore our infirmities on the Cross, Let us cast our cares in him and as he has promised, he will take care of us. In this endeavour of following the MASTER, we need to focus our attention on our common goal as a faith community. Without losing the vision we need to aspire for the transformation of the community at large with little acts of kindness and proactive futuristic involvement that benefit our next generation. In this regard, the Melbourne Mar Thoma Development Fund which we have instituted draws our prime attention. The ideals behind the noble cause need to be materialised in the near future. Kindly donate for that special cause and let our vision emerge to completion. This financial year of the Parish is coming to a close. Kindly plan to pay your contribution and donation in various respects without fail. Also, we need to identify a new team of committed committee members to lead us to a much better parish. The prayer group reorganisation has finally assumed its final shape with 8 prayer groups. It will be published soon. But as an experiment, we are moving forward with 8 prayer groups for June 2013. This effort is for the stability and integration of the people/families in our Parish. All who come to our Parish should feel the difference, being accepted surpassing all barriers. Express our strength in unity and bonding.. I may conclude with Robert Frost’s poem: The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep. With Prayers, Rev. C. Thomas

...Desiree Alaquinez Theme #8 HiST 1301 Mr. Myers Cholera Cholera is a deadly infection that occurs in the small intestine; which is caused by the bacterium vibrio cholera. The disease is most commonly found in places that are very crowded, war affiliated, extremely low scarcity of food, and especially if a place is poorly sanitized. Africa, South Asia, and Latin America are just some parts of the world that come across this deadly disease. Cholera first originated and made its appearance in India in 1817 at the Ganges River; which then later spread too many other regions due to neglected transported bilge of water. It was not until 1883, that this disease was discovered by German bacteriologist Robert Koch. Koch noticed the epidemic of this unusual rare disease and decided to take a closer look into the situation. He then realized that some sort of bacterium was in the intestines of the dead; but he was shocked to know that he was unable to neither isolate the organisms nor infect other animals with it. Later Koch went to India and made a surprising discovery-the cholera disease was started from damp dirty linen that the bacteria grew in, earth’s misty air, and bunch of bacteria that was in patient’s stools. The most common sources that cause cholera is standing water, type o blood, poor sanitation, eating raw seafood especially shellfish-because it originates from the same locations that have been exposed to cholera, consuming raw vegetables or fruit, and grain such as millet...

...Associate Program Material Diversity Worksheet Answer each question in 50 to 150 words. Provide citations for all the sources you use. What is diversity? Why is diversity valued? The term "diversity" is used broadly to refer to many demographic variables, including, but not limited to, race, religion, color, gender, national origin, disability, sexual orientation, age, education, geographic origin, and skill characteristics. Diversity should be respected and valued because nobody is completely the same as anyone else, even within the categories above. People tend to reject what is different. Our differences/diversities can lead to growth as a society or it can lead to violence and hatred. We must value our diversity in order to work together for the common good of our society/world. What is ethnocentrism? In what ways can ethnocentrism be detrimental to a society? Ethnocentrism is judging another culture solely by the values and standards of one's own culture. The ethnocentric individual will judge other groups relative to his or her own particular ethnic group or culture, especially with concern to language, behavior, customs, and religion. These ethnic distinctions and subdivisions serve to define each ethnicity's unique cultural identity. Even though it may cause external conflicts, it creates internal unity. It also makes individuals feel more certain about their beliefs. Through providing individuals with a sense of belonging to a particular...

...The domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris), is a subspecies of the gray wolf (Canis lupus), a member of the Canidae family of the mammilian order "Carnivora". The term "domestic dog" is generally used for both domesticated and feral varieties. The dog may have been the first animal to be domesticated, and has been the most widely kept working, hunting, and companion animal in human history. The word "dog" may also mean the male of a canine species, as opposed to the word "bitch" for the female of the species. The present lineage of dogs was domesticated from gray wolves about 15,000 years ago.Remains of domesticated dogs have been found in Siberia and Belgium from about 33,000 years ago. The earlier specimens not only show shortening of the snout but widening of the muzzle and some crowding of teeth making them clearly domesticated dogs and not wolves. There are more sites of varying ages in and around Europe and Asia younger than 33,000 years ago but significantly older than 15,000 years ago. None of these early domestication lineages seem to have survived the Last Glacial Maximum. Although mDNA suggest a split between dogs and wolves around 100,000 years ago no specimens predate 33,000 years ago that are clearly morphologically domesticated dog. Dogs' value to early human hunter-gatherers led to them quickly becoming ubiquitous across world cultures. Dogs perform many roles for people, such as hunting, herding, pulling loads, protection, assisting police and military, companionship...
