St. Marys Indian Orthodox Church, Sunderland

In the humble beginning, the Sunderland congregation had its first Indian Orthodox spiritual gathering at the Sunderland Royal Hospital Chapel on July 8 2004. As a sign of the readiness to share the Christian fraternity, the Sunderland Catholic community and the vicar permitted us to use the chapel for our spiritual needs and worship. The first Holy Qurbana was conducted by Fr Happy Jacob .
