"We know that all
things work together for good to those who love God, to those who
are called according to His purpose."
(Romans 8: 28)
Welcome to St. Ignatious
Youth League Corner. Our Youth League currently consists of
about fifty members, ranging from young adults in ninth grade
to those in and beyond college. With the careful guidance from our
spiritual leaders, Rev. Fr. Alias Aramath and Rev. Dn.
Zachariah Varghese, along with the other elder youths and
parents in our church, we hope to become a more active
fellowship. By involving ourselves in activities
within the church as well as in the Dallas community, we
hope to grow spiritually as a group.

OUR MISSION
To develop a
meaningful relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ,
To
preserve the Malankara Syriac Orthodox faith,
To
serve our parish and society, and
To
provide
a positive example for future generations.

Besides holding Regional Youth League Conferences, we plan
to increase our volunteer activities in the Dallas area.
In the past, our youth group volunteered with facilities in
Dallas such as Children’s Medical Center, and St. Jude’s
Hospital, which supports kids with terminal illnesses. We
hope to make it a
monthly event to either visit the needy or assist various
organizations in the Dallas area. For instance, we
have for the past three years conducted a canned food drive
in collaboration with our Sunday School, which have been
donated to the Dallas Life Foundation. God willing,
our plan is to continue these traditions while also
creating new ventures for spiritual growth. We hope and pray that
the Almighty God will continue to guide
and bless us in the future.
"Trust in the Lord
with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek
His will in all you do, and He will direct your paths."
(Proverbs 3: 5-6) |
