About Us
Welcome To Sacred Heart Province
Congregation of the Mother of Carmel (C.M.C) starts her history with Blessed Chavara Kuriakose Elias, who plays major role in the history of the Syrian Church in Kerala. February 13th 1886 witnessed the emergence of the first Indian indigenous religious Congregation for women – CMC at Koonammavu. St Kuriakose Elias Chavara founded the Congregation. Steady growth enabled the C.M.C. to send her daughters all over the world to witness Christ.
The erection of the Tellichery diocese in 1953 with Rt. Rev. Dr. Sebastian Valloppilly as its first Bishop paved the way for the growth of church in Malabar. 1956 can be called the inaugural year in the history of C.M.C. in Malabar. Five convents were started in the same year, one of which was at Nadavayal, with four sisters - Sr. Juliana (Superior) Sr. Xavier, Sr. Bosco and Sr. Columba. They started from Palai to the unknown land with the minimum requirements to set up a new convent and the dream was fulfilled on July 26th 1956. Jesus was with them and worked miracles through them.

St Kuriakose Elias Chavara
St Kuriakose Elias Chavara was the recognised leader of the people of God of his time. He was a visionary who integrated contemplation and action harmoniously in his life. Adorned with the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit, this man of God led a holy life preserving the baptismal grace all the while, and thus became a beautiful lamp and mirror not only for us but also for all the Christians of Kerala.
