Our Charity

Under God's providence, as a result of deep love, concern and paternal care and encouragement of His Grace Archbishop Benedict Mar Gregorios, His Beatitude Moran Mor Cyril Mar Baselios Catholicose and His Beatitude Moran Mor Baselios Cardinal Cleemis Catholicos and the untiring and painstaking efforts of dedicated Priests, Parish Committee and Community, Cathedral Church made rapid strides. In 2015, Cathedral celebrates its Golden Jubilee. It made qualitative and quantitative growth throughout these years and at present it is a dynamic Catholic community. It is by living the Eucharist that a Catholic Community discovers its identity and hence The Cathedral parish takes utmost care to celebrate the Eucharist with maximum participation of its members.

Archbishop Benedict Mar Gregorios died on October 10, 1994 and laid rest for resurrection in the Tomb of the Cathedral. Moran Mor Cyril Baselios Catholicos died on January 18, 2007 and laid rest for resurrection in the Tomb of the Cathedral.

Today the Parish has a membership of over 600 families and these families are divided into ten prayer groups under the protection of Blessed Virgin Mary, Apostles' and Saints. The Parish has a dedicated team of Catechism Teachers who take care of the formation of our children. The parish also indebted to the dedicated services of the Associations such as Vincent De Paul, Legion of Mary, MCYM, MCA, Mathrusamajam, Senior Citizen's Forum and Arts & Sports Club for its growth.
