89+ Years
of faith & grace
Nestled in Alencherry near Anchal, St. Mary's has been a sanctuary of prayer and belonging for generations. Rooted in the ancient tradition of the St. Thomas Christians, we worship God in the beauty of the Malankara Orthodox Holy Qurbana.
Whether you are a lifelong parishioner or a first-time visitor, you will find here a warm family of faith — one that prays together, celebrates together, and serves the least among us with the compassion of Christ.

Rev. Fr. Varghese T Varghese
Vicar
A parish is a family gathered around the altar — here, everyone has a place at the Lord's table.
Fr. Varghese shepherds St. Mary's with a heart for the poor and a deep love for the Holy Qurbana. With gentle wisdom he guides the spiritual and pastoral life of the parish, welcoming all who come seeking God's grace.
A dozen ministries and forums where every parishioner — child, youth, mother, father — finds a place to grow and serve.
Our doors are always open. Reach out to the parish office for any spiritual or pastoral need — we are here to walk with you.
