Before stepping into the role of clergy, your invaluable contributions as a warden laid the foundation for the strength and unity of the Diocese. Your dedication, wisdom, and guidance have left a lasting impact on all those you have served.
In addition to pastoral ministry, you also served as the In-Charge of Channapatna Ashram while ministering at Channapatna, ensuring the continued care and mission of this important institution.
Your service has not only been a reflection of your deep faith, but also your extraordinary sense of responsibility toward the Diocese and its members. You have led with compassion, integrity, and vision, and your legacy will continue to inspire future generations.
In your time as a clergy, an officer of the Diocese for two terms and an Executive Member for one term, you have not only exemplified the highest ideals of spiritual leadership, but also contributed meaningfully to the governance and direction of the Diocese.
Beyond these formal roles, you were entrusted with additional responsibilities, including serving as the Office Manager of the Diocese and acting as an authorised signatory during an interim period. In these roles, your diligence and trustworthiness ensured the smooth functioning of the Diocese’s operations during crucial times.
We are truly grateful for the immense blessings you’ve brought into the lives of many through your service. As you retire, may you experience a well-deserved time of rest and reflection, knowing that your work has made a difference that will be felt for years to come.
We also extend our heartfelt appreciation and best wishes to your beloved spouse, Mrs. Harsha Kumari George, and children, Mr. Stanley Joshua and Mrs. Mercy Sharon, for their steadfast support and shared journey with you in this pastoral ministry.
May God continue to bless you abundantly in this new season of life.
With heartfelt gratitude and prayers,
