Since my spouse is an atheist, I wanted to educate the kids in basic value systems that would have an impact on their life. Due to my job as a pilot, it's not possible to attend Church every week or enroll the kids as there wouldn't be anybody to take them to church in my absence. This idea of OGOSS is novel and at the same time a godsend for fathers like me. The standard of teaching was exceptional and the kids are fairly on the way to a good value system. God bless to the concept and the teachers.

The pedagogy and the accessibility of the Sunday school is remarkable. The teachers, the materials and the instruction are of highest quality. My son Isaac enjoys the school because of the teacher's guidance and the engagement to the students. He comprehends the biblical stories and is inquisitive about it. We as parents, feel that the children's love towards our triune God, the traditional christian prayers of our church and to foster the Orthodox Christian values is imperative even if you live far away from your native Orthodox community. The benefit of the students are that they can attend the Orthodox Christian Sunday School from any part of the world online along with their global classmates who share a common culture. We thank the OGOSS team for all the professional support for the kids. Especially the teachers and coordinators who allocate their invaluable time with their altruistic approach for the growth of our Malankara Orthodox Church.

This is to express our heartfelt gratitude to the entire OGOSS team. There was a time in our life we were heavy- laden with the thought of how to give proper Sunday school education for our child abhigal. OGOSS is a great blessing for her life and an answer for our longing to show our child to her Savior. Along with the high quality lessons, she enjoys the activities given to her during class hours. The OGOSS competition of the year helped a lot to boost her confidence and was an excellent platform for her to light up her lamp before others without hesitation. Also we are thankful to you for being a channel of God’s love and compassion to young children. The work you do for these small kids is highly appreciated by the parents and may it be pleasing in the eyes of our Lord Jesus.

" Over the last year, being part of OGOSS (Orthodox Global Online Sunday School) has been truly eye-opening. As a senior student at 50, I reconnected with my Orthodox roots, compensating for missed traditional Sunday school due to my education in a Malankara Catholic boarding school. OGOSS became a place to explore our church's rich history, understanding the challenges faced by church leaders.
OGOSS not only taught me about our church's history but also helped me grasp the true meaning of Holy Qurbana and its connection to the Bible. The importance of the Bible in Holy Qurbana became clear, enhancing my appreciation for its rituals.
Despite my regular Saturday work, I adjusted my schedule to join weekly classes. The collaborative spirit during exams and projects created a sense of community. Thanks to the OGOSS team, coordinators, teachers, and fellow students for making it a hub of knowledge and global connection. Wishing everyone a bright future - God bless."
