Dhaivamatha Church has a rich history of faith and community building in Jubilee Nagar.

Timeline of Divine Milestones

  • 135+ Years Ago (Late 1800s): Foundation of Faith

    The sacred journey began with the establishment of our first small Kapela under Ambazhakad Forane, serving as the pioneering chapel dedicated “Parishudha Mathavinte Namathil” (in the name of the Holy Mother). This humble mission station planted the seeds of Catholic faith among scattered families of Jubilee Nagar.
  • 1972 - August 15: Divine Renewal

    Through God's abundant grace, our chapel underwent a major Punarudharnam (complete renovation and expansion). This transformation marked the 15th anniversary milestone, elevating our simple worship space into a permanent structure of devotion.
  • 1977: Ecclesiastical Recognition

    Elevated to Kurisu Palli status, signifying the remarkable growth of our Catholic community and formal acknowledgment within the diocesan family of Irinjalakuda.
  • 1987: Birth of Filial Church

    Officially established as a filial church under Ambazhakad Forane, with regular celebrations of the Holy Qurbana beginning. Dhaivamatha Church became the spiritual heart of Jubilee Nagar, drawing families to worship our Divine Mother.
  • 2007 - August: Modern Sanctuary

    Construction of our current magnificent church building - a testament to faith-filled sacrifice and community unity. This sacred structure now accommodates our growing parish family in worship and prayer.
  • 2009: Daily Holy Qurbana

    Institution of the daily Holy Qurbana, deepening the spiritual life of our community and providing continual access to Christ's Real Presence through our Mother's intercession.
  • 2021: Parish Proclamation

Our Spiritual Heritage

Dhaivamatha Church, Jubilee Nagar, Annallur P.O., Mala, Thrissur - 680731, continues the ancient St. Thomas Christian tradition as a proud member of the Syro-Malabar Catholic Church. Under the patronage of Dhaivamatha (Divine Mother Mary), we serve as a filial beacon within the Diocese of Irinjalakuda and Ambazhakad Forane.

From its origins as a modest Kapela over a century ago, through miraculous renovations and expansions, to its current role as a vibrant parish family, Dhaivamatha Church remains committed to fostering spiritual growth, sacramental life, and community unity. Each stone of our sacred building tells a story of faith, each Mass echoes generations of prayer, and each family carries forward the divine legacy entrusted to us by our Divine Mother.

“I am the way, the truth, and the life.”
