His Eminence Archbishop Mor Dionysius Jean Kawak celebrates Holy Qurobo at Mor Barsawmo in Wyckoff, NJ. He was assisted by Rev. Fr. Gabriel Al-Khoury, parish priest of Mor Barsawmo.

In his sermon His Eminence spoke about the faith of the blind man, calling on our Lord Jesus Christ to have mercy on him. His Eminence noted that we too today are often blind to the calling of the Lord, and must call on God to have mercy on us. After the sermon, His Eminence offered a prayer for the sick, and asked our Lord to keep Archbishop Yohanna Ibrahim and Paulos Yazigi safe and return them to their flock.

Following the Liturgy, the deacons lead His Eminence to the social hall singing ‘Tob bShlomo’ where the congregation welcomed His Eminence to their parish.
