Ayanagar St. John the
Baptist Latin parish was
erected in 1991. This parish
is very close to the fast
growing IT city of Gurgaon of
Hariyana state. Around fifty
Syro Malabar families with an
effective strength of two
hundred persons wanted to have
syro malabar Mass and other
activities in the parish and
accordingly put in an
application for the same to
the Archbishop of Delhi as a
memorandum. As the parish
priest was not ready to allow
another Mass (Syro Malabar) in
the same parish, people
repeated the request to allow
them to have the same in a
rented house. The same was
sanctioned and St.Mary's Mass
Centre was inaugurated by
Rev.Fr.Jose Edassery, the
Coordiantor of Syro Malabar
community at A3/16 Phase V,
Ayanagar, New Delhi- 110047 at
8.30 am on sunday 21st
December 2008. Now regular
Mass is celebrated on all
Sundays and Days of
obligation. The children are
having Sunday catechism in
seven classes.
A new Church Building
constructed under the
leadership of Fr Jose Edassery,
the Coordinator.
The church was blessed on 1st
May 2010. On 08th Aug 2010 Fr Binto Kilukkan took over the
charge of the mass center. He
was replased by Fr Denny
Kattayil on 8th Oct 2011.
