Saint Thomas Jacobite Syrian church , also known as Paravur Cheriyapally, is a Syrian Orthodox church located in North Paravur , India .[1] [2] This church was constructed in AD 1566 in the midst of the seven bazaars of Paravur town by the parishioners of the ancient Kottakkavu Paravur Valiapally . The church houses the tomb of famous Syrian Orthodox prelate Gregorios Abdul Jaleel and has staged consecrations of various prelates of the Jacobite Syrian Church since then.[1]
History and establishment [ edit ]
Entrance
Tradition of Saint Thomas [ edit ]
According to the traditions of the Saint Thomas Christians , Saint Thomas the Apostle arrived in Muziris port in Malabar in AD 52 and established seven churches which are known as Elarappallikal . One of these is at Kottakkavu that is modern North Paravur . Kottakkavu is located south of the ancient port of Muziris.[1]
Establishment of the Church [ edit ]
The St. Thomas Syrian Church (Cheriapally) at Pararvur, was constructed in the new market of North Paravur in AD 1566 by the parishioners of the old Kottakkavu Church located nearby. The Big Bazar Tharakans, who were the wealthy local merchants in Paravur, led the construction of the new church. The local Ruler of Paravur exempted the church from taxes and donated a plot of land in the midst of the seven markets of New Paravur Town. The establishment of the church has been inscribed in an old granite plaque and embedded in the wall near the front door of the church.[1]
