His Eminence Mor Dionysius John Kawak assisted by Rev. Fr. Gabriel Hanna the parish priest of St. Ephraim’s Cathedral, Burbank California celebrated the Holy Liturgy at Mor Gabriel Church in Haworth, New Jersey in the presence of V. Rev. Fr Aziz Hadodo the parish priest and V. Rev. Fr. Joseph Shabo. His Eminence first welcomed Abuna Gabriel Hanna and his family and welcomed all the Youth for the monthly Youth Holy Liturgy rotating in our three local Churches of New Jersey.
Rev. Fr. Gabriel Hanna thanked His Eminence for the invitation and for his blessing. He then delivered his sermon on the occasion of the Annunciation to Zechariah. He spoke to the faithful and reminded them that although there are many times in life, we have asked the Lord and we think He has never answered our petitions, we must wait on the Lord and know that all will work out in His timing and in His ways. The Youth Holy Liturgy was then followed by refreshments at the social hall welcoming all the Clergy and Youth.
