OUR STORY

Our Humble Beginnings

In 2000, the Indy Catholic Malayalee community began not in a cathedral, but in the living rooms and basements of a few dedicated families. In those early days, distance was no obstacle; some members traveled for hours just to pray together and share a meal. These small, faithful gatherings laid the foundation for the vibrant community we are today.

Fr. Francis Kalapurackal has been a pillar of our community from the very start, serving as a strong supporter and the spiritual backbone of our church since its inception. His unwavering guidance has helped us grow from a small prayer group into the family we are today.

Where We Are Now

What started in a basement has grown into a spiritual home for over 35 families. We may have grown in size, but our heart remains the same. Every month, we gather for Holy Mass at St. Pius X Church in Indianapolis, followed by our favorite tradition: a community potluck lunch where we share food, stories, and laughter.

Join Our Family

From festive holiday celebrations to monthly mass and picnics, our community is built on faith and friendship. We warmly welcome Indiana’s Malayalee community to join us in honoring our heritage. Want to stay updated? Sign up for our newsletter to receive the latest news on Mass and local events.
