Dear all

I am shocked to see that, my parish (the smallest parish of Syriac Orthodox
Church and also it is our family Church) is represented by one Rev. Dr. K. L.
Mathew Vaidyan, Cor-episcopa, Karipottu Kizhakkadathu, Thazhakkara P.
O,Mavelikkara - 690 102 in the so called "THE MALANKARA SYRIAN CHRISTIAN
ASSOCIATION".

I am sure this priest never ever seen from his own eyes my parish in his
lifetime. How dare he represent my parish, which is not part of the so called
Association?

I still remember in seventies, when this association tried to capture my family
church, they were stopped by the non Christian villagers of our village.

This sort of actions from the Malankara orthodox Church authorities will create
unnecessary tension and misunderstanding among the relatives, who are the
members of different Apostolic Churches.

I am sure this will be the case of all other Jacobite Churches, which is not
part of this Association.

I don't think it is a Christian way of action.

I know this small post will not change anything, but at least this will help
other Jacobite Churches to be vigilant.

In HIS Love
