Malabar Diocese, Orthodox Christian diocese in Kerala, India
The Malabar Diocese extends across Kerala's northern districts, managing numerous parishes and educational institutions through a structured ecclesiastical administration.
The diocese traces its foundations to the arrival of Saint Thomas the Apostle in 52 AD, establishing one of the earliest Christian communities in India.
The diocese maintains distinct liturgical practices combining Syrian Christian traditions with Malayalam language services, reflecting the regional identity of Kerala.
Weekly services occur in multiple churches throughout the diocese, with the main cathedral in Calicut serving as the administrative center for religious activities.
The diocese preserves ancient East Syrian ecclesiastical customs while incorporating local Malayalam elements, creating a specific form of Orthodox Christianity.
