CONGRATULATIONS TO THE TAMIL METHODIST CHURCH PENANG
                    ON THE 125TH YEAR ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION



                                        Tribute to the Youth of our church
                                        Praise be to God for all the good things he has done. The celebration of our
                                        church’s existence  for 125 years is an opportunity to further glorify God and at
                                        the same time to remember the pioneers who had the foresight to establish a
                                        place of worship for Tamil speaking Christians on the Island of Penang. Many
                                        who joined the church in the course of the 125 years contributed, in various
                                        ways, towards the growth of the church. Older members have passed on and
                                        many other have moved out of Penang. As members of the church from the
                                        sixties to the early nineties, my wife and I were glad and impressed to see the
                                        young children from that period as adult members now, with some of them
                                        holding o ce in the leadership of the church.


                                        Challenges abound to the church as changes take place with the passing of
                                        time. For instance the current worship format is more acceptable to the youthful
                                        generation who form the majority of the congregation. Changes are inevitable
                                        in a growing church and the enthusiasm of the young adults has to be respect-
                                        ed and accommodated.

                                        I am con dent that the church will grow spiritually and in numbers with the
                                        leadership provided by the young adults of the church. To God be the Glory.
                                        Mr. C. Natkunasingam
