  Meetings and Conferences The annual conference of the MGOCSM of Delhi Diocese was held on 1st and 2nd of October 2006 at St. Thomas School, Sector 8, Faridabad. It was the first time that it was organised in conjunction with the Indian Orthodox Diaspora Secretariat. The theme of the conference was ‘On the way to Mount Tabor’. About 150 young people from across the Diocese participated in it. The conference began with the celebration of Holy Qurbana in English by Rev. Fr. VM Abraham, the General Secretary of MGOCSM, at St. Mary’s Orthodox Church, Faridabad. In the inaugural programme that followed, Very Rev. MS Sakariah was the guest of honour as a representative of the Diocesan Metropolitan His Grace Job Mar Philoxenos.


Theme presentations were made by Fr. VM Abraham, followed by group discussions. He also took a session on the Christian Ethos of Marriage on the second day. Rev. Fr. VM James took a Bible study while Very Rev. MS Sakariah Ramban took a devotional talk on the 2nd. For the purpose of career guidance Mr.Sanjay Raphael Varghese spoke on the hospitality industry and Mr. Sunny Thomas on the media. Colour was added to the proceedings through ice breaking sessions, skits put up by groups and song sessions. Prayers were held in English and Hindi.

The programme was managed jointly by the MGOCSM (Vice President Rev. Fr. Biju P. Thomas) and the Delhi IODS(Vice President, Rev. Fr. Thomas Ninan) with the co-operation of the Faridabad parish (Vicar, Rev. Fr. Philip M. Samuel).On the whole the participants got to learn much like the importance of Renunciation, pilgrimage and the relevance of the Holy Qurbana. The organisers also got insights into the needs of the youth today.
