DESCRIPTION:May 17th is the anniversary of the demise of Mor Dionysius III
  (Punnathra) +1825\n\nMor Dionysius III was the Malankara Metropolitan unt
 il his demise. He was a member of Kallumgathara Church\, & after ordinatio
 n became its Vicar. He was consecrated as successor to Mor Dionysius II (P
 ulikkottil Joseph I). Mor Dionysius III had to contend with the CMS missio
 naries of the Anglican Church. He also continued the steps his predecessor
  took to establish a seminary for the Jacobite Syrians. \n\nIn 1821 Mor Di
 onysius III wrote a letter addressed to Lord Gambier (President of CMS) & 
 Bishop Henry of the Anglican Church. In 1823\, the same letter\, which was
  translated from Syriac\, was also published in "The Christian Journal and
  Literary Register" in New York. Some excerpts from the letter are as foll
 ows\, \n\n"Mar Dionysius\, metropolitan of the Jacobite Syrians in Malabar
 \, subject to the authority of our father\, Mar Ignatius\, patriarch\, who
  presides in the apostolic see of Antioch of Syria\, beloved of the Messia
 h.\n\n...We who are called Syrian-Jacobites\, and reside in the land of Ma
 labar\, even from the times of Mar Thomas the holy apostle until the wall 
 of Cochin was taken in the reign of king Purgis\, kept the true faith acco
 rding to the manner of the Syrian Jacobites\, of real glory\, without divi
 sion or confusion. But by the power of the Franks our Jacobite Syrian fath
 ers and leaders were prohibited from coming from Antioch.\n\n...came to us
  some holy Jacobite Syrian fathers from Antioch who turned us to our true 
 ancient faith and set up a high priest for us."\n\nThe words of Mor Dionys
 ius III in 1821\, puts to rest the preposterous claims of those who say th
 e Malankara Church was forcefully brought under Antioch only after the Mul
 anthuruthy Synod of 1876. \n\nAfter serving the Malankara Church\, Mor Dio
 nysius III departed for the heavenly abode & his mortal remains were inter
 red in Cheriyapally Kottayam. \n\nIllustration of Mor Dionysius only for a
 rtistic purposes. \n\nOh Mor Dionysius III! Plead for us before God's thro
 ne of grace. Amen.
