Radio Malankara
On the eve of our 8th birthday, SOCM-Forum
is crossing another milestone in its development, by adding
another activity to its operation.
We have started an Internet radio named as
"shubho",
for those members who love to listen the beauty of the Syriac
Orthodox Worships, liturgical, traditional and special occasions
songs, as well as hearing spiritual messages.
On
Sep 4, 2008, at
a grand
function held in connection with the famous Eight-day lent
festival at the
Manarcad Morth Mariam Jacobite Syrian Cathedral, the internet
radio of the Syriac Orthodox Church, "Shubho"-Radio Malankara,
promoted by
SOCMNet.org
was officially inaugurated
by His Beatitude the Catholicos Aboon Mor Baselios Thomas I, the
head of the Church in India.
For more details of official launching the
radio
In the
Syriac Aramaic language, "shubho"
means, "Glory"
Psalms 150: 1-6 says
1: Praise ye the LORD.
Praise God in his sanctuary:
praise him in the firmament of his power.
2: Praise him for his mighty acts:
praise him according to his excellent greatness.
3: Praise him with the sound of the trumpet:
praise him with the psaltery and harp.
4: Praise him with the timbrel and dance:
praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
5: Praise him upon the loud cymbals:
praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
6: Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD.
These verses alone is our great inspiration for this project.
This project is initiated by SOCM-FORUM and it was a collective
and successful effort of our faithful from different parts of
the world.
The mission of the team behind "shubho"
is to praise HIM and to uphold the true faith of the Universal
Syriac Orthodox Church, handed over to us by our forefathers, as
well as to make a platform for all Syriac Orthodox Christians
around the world to listen the beauty of the Holy Syriac
Orthodox Church worship. Our vision is to take "shubho"
to new heights and to be the premier broadcasting station of its
kind on internet.
We are fully aware that the e-radio
"shubho"
is presently in its infancy and its further development and
success will be entirely dependent on your right feed back and
encouragement. The test broadcasting is now started on a 24-hrs
basis, and you can hear it on the following URL:
http://www.radiomalankara.org
. We request all of you to hear the
radio and give us your valuable comments about the e-radio.
Also please support us by remembering this project in your
prayers and providing us more audio (MP3) recordings of Syriac
Orthodox worship, songs of different occasions and spiritual
talks of our prelates, clergy and church recognized lay
ministers.
We submit this project for the ultimate glory of our Lord
Almighty and for the Holy Church.
Listen and be blessed |
