St.George Church, Kadamattom, Ernakulam

Rush of pilgrims to this place has been there from time immemorial. And the church was lively with the celebration of Holy Sacraments according to the Antiochean Syrian Orthodox rite.

Like any other ancient church in Malankara, Kadamattom church also was involved in the faction feud. When the second split happened in early 70's church was divided for both factions and both factions conducted sacraments in alternative turns.

Athanasius, the defected Bishop looked into it that the church be closed down otherwise he wouldn't have a stand in front of the IOC Catholicose. The IOC Catholicose also supported his untrue and illegal cause.

Kadamattom the place in Ernakulam district where the great legendary figure Rev. Fr. Paulose Kathanar alias Kadamattathu Kathanar lived.
