Brief History:
The catholics living at Amalinagar today migrated from Alanthalai in 1915 due to a riot. In Amalinagar a church was built in 1940 by Fr. J.S. Lobo with the blessings of Bishop Roche and the financial help offered by Mr. J.M.J. Joseph Venceslaus. This church was consecrated in 1948. Fr. Eusebius enlarged the church with the co-operation of Fr. Suvakin Fernando and Fr. Pancras Fernando renewed the church by expanding it more. The silver jubilee of the church was celebrated in 1995.
