Winston Churchill once said, a good speech must be like ladies short skirt ,short enough to arouse

the curiosity and long enough to cover the important things.Following this advice ,I think I will not
consume much of your time.A very pleasant good morning to all who have gathered here, When I sat
to prepare a bday speech for fr.Matthew I was reminded of coloumbus, Do you know who is
colombus? During columbus’ time people thought that the earth is flat and If you go beyond the
horizon ,that is where the land and sea appear to meet ,you will die! But columbus baffled them by
his adventure and found America. Here also stands a solid man who baffles all of us with age, He looks
so young that nobody can predict his age without his birth certificate.father is the energy power
house of this house he radiates his energy to all of us,His energy and enthusiasm makes even a dead
man to smash a volleyball and even a blind to shoot the basketball.50% of his time his dedicated for
teaching and another 50% of his time is dedicated for learning, He teaches everything he knows and
updates him ,personally I have never seen him so dull in the past three years rather I have been
energized after seeing him when I was dull. God has many faces, I mean the characteristics, every
christian represents anyone of the faces of God, The face of God that father wears is that of power
and authority of God.He is blessed with abundant of blessings that can be seen clearly like that of
Abraham.At last I want to say one last quote which describes him on a whole.

“ Reactions of chemicals happen when you heat it but the reactions of our hearts happen when you
see it”
