About the Church:

Harmu was established in 1977 at the outskirts of the city where there was a Sunday Mass Centre of Doranda parish, but taken care of by the Franciscan TOR Priests from FTI, Ranchi. The new Church at Harmu was blessed by Most Rev. Pius Kerketta, S.J. on Nov. 11, 1979. Today, the Friars have at Harmu two schools: St. Francis School (English Medium) established in 1978; and St. Louis High School (Hindi Medium) opened in 1979, each with over 1000 students.

Realizing the need to accelerate the promotion of evangelization in the rich soil of Chotanagpur, a Commisssariat (Region) was made in 1996, and it was raised into a Vice-Province on Dec. 8, 1999, with headquarters at Franciscan Ashram, Harmu.
