Sam John — Sat, 13 Feb 2016 04:21:03 +0000

Sunday, February 7, 2016 was our achen, Rev. Fr. Dr. Varghese Manikat’s, last day serving as vicar. Rev. Fr. Manikat has been with St. Mary’s Church Floral Park since its inception in 2011. Manikat Achen served 5 years at St. Mary’s and has led the church spiritually and given guidance to its spiritual organizations. Under Manikat Achen’s tenure the church has grown significantly and has had many accomplishments. We thank Manikat Achen for his time at St. Mary’s and wish him all the best as he goes on to be the vicar at St. George Syriac Orthodox Church, Northern Virginia and also at St. Paul’s Syrian Orthodox Church, Broomall, PA. We welcome our new achens Rev. Fr. Jerry Jacob and Rev. Fr. Joel Jacob.
