ST.PETERS & ST.PAULS ORTHODOX CHURCH IS A CONGREGATION OF THE MADRAS DIOSESE OF THE MALANKARA ORTHODOX SYRIAN CHURCH.
Located at Koyambedu and easily accessible from all the fast developing residential areas of Chennai city, this church is an architectural marvel designed by Architect Varghese Oommen.
The first service was conducted in Dec'91 starting as a chapel under the St. Thomas Cathedral, Broadway, in the name of St. Peters & St. Pauls Chapel with H.G. Zachariah Mar Dionysius as the Diocesan Bishop. This church became an independent parish on 2nd Sep'2006 as per the Kalpana of H.G. Yakub Mar Ireanios the then Diocesan Thirumeni.
The growth of this independent church is phenomenal with the present membership being 421 families under the stewardship of the new Diocesan Thirumeni H.G.Dr.Yuhanon Mar Dioscoros. Rev. Fr. Gigi Mathew is the first Vicar and under his spiritual leadership St. Peter’s & St. Paul’s Church is a Cynosure of all eyes. Every one who visits this church is all praise for the excellent upkeep and its maintenance.
Now, to cap all the achievements, the church has constructed a massive Cross Tower and Kodimaram with the financial support of all the church members.
