St Euphrasia Mission

St Euphrasia Mission is a vibrant community of the Syro Malabar Catholic Church, serving the Malayalam-speaking Catholic faithful in the Salford Diocese.

Our Parish Priest

Rev Fr Stanto Vazheeparambil leads our community with dedication and pastoral care, celebrating the Holy Qurbana and providing spiritual guidance to our parishioners.

Our Church Location

We celebrate the Holy Qurbana at St Mary's Church, located on Oxford Street in Eccles, Manchester. This beautiful church serves as our spiritual home where we gather as a community to worship and celebrate our faith.

The Syro Malabar Tradition

The Syro Malabar Church is one of the 23 Eastern Catholic Churches in full communion with Rome. It traces its origins to the evangelization of St. Thomas the Apostle in India in AD 52. Our rich liturgical tradition, celebrated in Malayalam, connects us to this ancient apostolic heritage.

Our Community

Our mission serves the spiritual needs of the Syro Malabar faithful in the Greater Manchester area. We celebrate the Holy Qurbana regularly, conduct catechism classes, and organize community events that strengthen our bonds of faith and fellowship.
