Mission Statement

Sacred Heart Knanaya Catholic Parish of Chicago commits to serve the pastoral needs of the Knanaya Catholics in the State of Illinois, having domicile on the Southside of the Expressway 90 and those having domicile in the State of Indiana, in communion with the St. Thomas Syro-Malabar Catholic Diocese of Chicago and the Archeparchy of Kottayam, especially by providing liturgical services in the Syro-Malabar and Syro-Malankara Rites, offering Religious Education and spiritual formation, organizing pious associations, ministries for all ages, koodara yogams (tent gatherings), promoting Knanaya traditions, and developing a spirit of Christian love.

Brief History

This church was established on September 1, 2006, under the St. Thomas Syro-Malabar Catholic Diocese of Chicago.
