This parish developed from missionary efforts following the Apostolic tradition of St. Thomas. Fr. Daniel Thottam collaborated with local leaders to establish a worship centre, and the wooden church was inaugurated on June 29, 1966, with the first baptism administered on August 26, 1966. A permanent stone structure was later constructed with international financial support. The parish serves approximately 150 families.
