Syro-Malabar Catholic Eparchy of Mississauga

August 6, 2015 is a memorable day in the history of the Syro-Malabar Catholics in Canada. It was on that day the Holy Father Pope Francis, “Desiring to protect and promote the spiritual riches of the Oriental Churches…”(Cf. Decree of Erection), erected the Apostolic Exarchate for the Syro-Malabar Catholics in Canada and appointed Very Reverend Dr. Jose Kalluvelil as the Apostolic Exarch by the Apostolic Constitution “Spiritualem ubertatem”.The Apostolic Exarchate for the Syro-Malabar Catholics in Canada is elevated to the rank of an Eparchy with the title of Mississauga by His Holiness Pope Francis on 22 December 2018. Our main objectives are, To Form, To Fortify and To Evangelise the People of God and provide them with all the necessary pastoral care. Based on the promise of Christ: “Seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well” (Mt. 6:33).
