Church celebrates day themed ‘give thanks to the Lord’

Faith

THE St Martin De Porres (SMDP) Catholic Church of Morata in Port Moresby on Sunday celebrated the SMDP Eucharistic Feast Day with theme “Give thanks to the Lord for his love endures forever”.
The sermon was conducted by the main celebrant, Rev Father Dong Saladga, a sub division dean of Deanery Three of Port Moresby.
Rev Saladga said it was time for Christians to have faith in the Lord and stand firm in the beliefs as St Martin De Porres did in times of trials, temptations, sorrows, sadness, etc.
He said that thanksgiving was important and all should learn to be thankful to the Lord for His continuous blessings and protections.
He reminded Christians and citizens to be thankful for small things to bigger as God never stops loving.
He said in remembrance service to reflect SMDP in his good work and sacrifices, Christians had to be humble as he was, and who had sacrificed his life for the good and spread of gospel into the world.
He said St Martin was a very graceful person as he was always thankful of very small things, and never stopped thanking.
