Happy Anniversary of Priestly Ordination Fr Tom Jose Pandiappallil CMI

We celebrate today the 25th anniversary of the priestly ordination of Fr. Tom Jose Pandiappallil CMI (Carmelites of Mary Immaculate). Fr. Tom serves as the Administrator of St Mary’s Star of the Sea Cathedral and as chaplain to the Jesus Youth Australia.

He also brings valuable qualifications in counselling, which enrich his ministry and deepen the pastoral care he offers to many. We thank God for Fr. Tom’s many years of faithful service, his generous self-giving, and his pastoral zeal.

We are grateful for the love and care he extends to so many within our diocesan family. We pray that God continues to bless Fr. Tom with strength, joy, and grace for many more years of fruitful service.

God Bless
