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. The word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying:

    2. Thus says the Lord of hosts: I am jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I am jealous for her with great wrath.

    3. Thus says the Lord: I will return to Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem; Jerusalem shall be called the faithful city, and the mountain of the Lord of hosts shall be called the holy mountain.

    4. Thus says the Lord of hosts: Old men and old women shall again sit in the streets of Jerusalem, each with staff in hand because of their great age.

    5. And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in its streets.

    6. Thus says the Lord of hosts: Even though it seems impossible to the remnant of this people in these days, should it also seem impossible to me, says the Lord of hosts?

    7. Thus says the Lord of hosts: I will save my people from the east country and from the west country;

    8. and I will bring them to live in Jerusalem. They shall be my people and I will be their God, in faithfulness and in righteousness.

    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 lives in the light, and in such a person there is no cause for stumbling.

    11. But whoever hates another believer 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.

    12. As God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience.

    13. Bear with one another and, if anyone has a complaint against another, forgive each other; just as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.

    14. Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.

    15. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful.

    16. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; teach and admonish one another in all wisdom; and with gratitude in your hearts sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to God.

    17. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. Rules for Christian Households

    18. Wives, be subject to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

    19. Husbands, love your wives and never treat them harshly.

    20. Children, obey your parents in everything, for this is your acceptable duty in the Lord.

    31. Then his mother and his brothers came; and standing outside, they sent to him and called him.

    32. A crowd was sitting around him; and they said to him, “Your mother and your brothers and sisters are outside, asking for you.”

    33. And he replied, “Who are my mother and my brothers?”

    34. And looking at those who sat around him, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers!

    35. Whoever does the will of God is my brother and sister and mother.”
