May the Holy Feast of the Ascension be a blessing to you and your families.

“From the heights above Christ our Lord, the Savior of all, clothed Himself with majesty, glory, and splendor, giving salvation to the nations and the forgiveness of debts and sins for the pardon of all. Let us glorify this precious Blood and Body which we have received and let us say, Hallelujah, hallelujah!”

+ Mar Yosip Khnanisho Parish — Children’s Ministry End-of-Year Celebration: 2026 +

This year we learned about the Armor of God, spent time in Psalm 23, and studied the Sermon on the Mount. The kids didn’t just hear the Bible—they really dug into it, asked questions, and grew in their understanding of God’s Word.

We also continued learning our Assyrian language, our beautiful mother tongue, and we’re excited to keep building on that next year.

We’re so thankful for these kids and their hearts for God, and for all the families who supported them along the way. 💛

Our Parish was blessed to host our 7th Annual Walk-A-Thon, with this year’s theme, “Steps of Faith.”

We want to give a huge thank you to all of our entertainment, walkers, sponsors, supporters, and volunteers for their continued support and for helping make this event possible.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.” — Proverbs 3:5–6

May God continue to bless you and your families! 🤍
