In the land of the ever-rising sun, Tampa, Florida, a group of believers of the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church (India) formed a congregation on November 4th, 1989 named after the Holy Saint of the Church, St. Gregorios of Parumala under the leadership of Rev. Fr. Samuel K Mathew.

On November 09, 1990, Rev. Fr. George Paulose, Valanadyil, Onakkoor, was appointed as the Vicar of this congregation by H.G. Dr. Thomas Mar Makarios of blessed memory and the Holy Qurbana was conducted regularly at the parish hall of the Holy Redeemer Lutheran Church, Temple Terrace.

As the size of the congregation began to grow, two acres land with a building was purchased on May 1994 and the worship continued in this building. A small Church was built in this property, and it was consecrated by H.G. Mathews Mar Barnabas of blessed memory and H.G. Dr. Thomas Mar Makarios of blessed memory on August 16th, 1997. Read More…
