WELCOME TO THE DEPARTMENT OF

CATECHETICS DIOCESE OF VIJAYAPURAM

“Guarding the deposit of faith is the mission which the Lord entrusted to His Church, and which she fulfills in every age”, exhorted the Blessed Pope John Paul II at the opening words of his Apostolic Constitution FideiDepositum, dated October 11, 1992.

His Holiness Pope Pius XI on 14th July 1930 by the apostolic bull “Ad Christi Nomen” bifurcated the Archdiocese of Verapoly and formed a new Diocese of Vijayapuram with its headquarters in Kottayam municipal town. His Excellency Rt. Rev. Dr. Sebastian Thekkethecheril, the present bishop of Vijayapuram, is its fifth bishop.
