With faith in Christ and in the hope of resurrection, we share with a heavy heart, Reverend Father Dr. M. K. Thomas has passed away in Kerala, India.
Achen faithfully served as the Vicar of St Gregorios Orthodox Church, Raleigh, North Carolina for over two decades, along with other church communities throughout North America. He was an avid supporter of ministries such as Sunday School and MGOCSM, which nurtured our youth into God-loving adults. Additionally, he stressed the importance of theological and pastoral education for young men called to the ordained ministry born and raised in the US. He was a loving pastor of souls and mentor to many, who will be missed immensely.
Let us keep our departed Achen in our prayers, especially the grieving family, and parishioners of St. Gregorios Church, Raleigh.
May the memory of Reverend Father Dr. M. K. Thomas, be eternal!
