docu

My Lord and My God’ , a two hours and forty minutes length documentary is first of its kind about St. Thomas Christians, with special focus on the faith and practices of the Mar Thoma Syrian Church. The story of Malankara (Kerela) Christians is portrayed in an ecumenical ambience. The rare visuals, like that of seven churches of St. Thomas Christians, make it exciting. The first part of the documentary focuses on the historical growth of the Malankara Church. It takes new route by the Coonen Cross event and the reformation. The second part of the film illustrates the mission activities of the church. Candid is the exposition on sacraments and practices of the church. So the film is an integral introduction to the faith, practices, organizations and rituals of the Mar Thoma Syrian Church. This documentary is the result of four and half years of prayers, research, travel, documenting, and dedicated teamwork. This documentary is dedicated to our Valiya Metropolitan Philipose Mar Chrysostom Mar Thoma on His Grace’s 90th birthday.

PRAISE FOR “MY LORD AND MY LORD”
[Documentary Film]


“Thank you for the DVD “My Lord and my God”. This morning itself I got it displayed through my TV. We are very much moved and saw the whole thing at a stretch absorbing two and a half hours. After seeing it, I felt fortunate in having been born into the Mar Thoma Church. The editing, the photography and the voice modulations etc., in the DVD are fine. This must be seen by every Marthomite.”

-Justice K. T. Thomas,
Former Judge,
Supreme Court of India




“The unique and unprecedented initiative by Bishop Mar Joseph Barnabas of the Mar Thoma Syrian Church in an attempt to make a comprehensive documentary has finally borne rich fruit for all to see. The four and half years of research, filming and editing put into 2 hours and 40 minutes of the documentary with scenic shots on the one hand and some touching shots of the social involvement of the Mar Thoma Church has come out brilliantly well. Conceptualized and directed by Rev. Geo George SVD, who has 131 films to his credit, the film deals with the historical background of the Malankara Church and its journey of deep faith and commitment on the one hand and the various missionary activities of this rather miniscule community on the other.

All in all, after viewing the film, one can genuinely exclaim in wonderment ‘My Lord and my God’, for, besides the rich and beautiful demonstration of the Mar Thoma Community, the film is not only inspires but along the way, also deepens one’s own faith.”

-Rev. Dr. Dominic Emmanuel SVD,
Director and spokesperson,
Delhi Catholic Archdiocese


“I express my sincere appreciation and gratitude to Your Grace for the vision and initiative shown by Your Grace in bringing out the VCD “My Lord and my God”. Thid VCD which is based on the history of our Church and its various organizations, I believe was the need of the hour.”
