History of Diocese
The Malabar Diocese, which has extended in the western districts of Kerala, was formed in 1953. Paulose Mar Sevarios and Pathrose Mar Osthathios (1953–68) have executed its administration at different times. Since 11 November 1966, Thomas Mar Timotheos became the diocesan head and is now Catholicose of the East. Mount Hermon Aramana in Kozhikode is the diocesan headquarters. The St. Thomas Home and Estate and the Aravanchal Estate at Erumamunda and Attapadi, and Parumala Mar Gregorios Orthodox Guidance Center are some of the institutions functioning under the aegis of the diocese. The Attapadi St. Thomas Mission Center comes under the Malabar Diocese. The diocesan journal Hermon Sandhesam has been published since 1997. The Aramana is situated 100 meters away from the Kattamgal junction on the Kozhikode- Mukam route near the Regional Engineering College, Kozhikode.

“This is the greatest week in the history of the world since the Creation, because as a result of what happened in this week, the world is bigger, infinitely.”
—Richard M. Nixon (1913–1995)
“All history attests that man has subjected woman to his will, used her as a means to promote his selfish gratification, to minister to his sensual pleasures, to be instrumental in promoting his comfort; but never has he desired to elevate her to that rank she was created to fill. He has done all he could to debase and enslave her mind; and now he looks triumphantly on the ruin he has wrought, and say, the being he has thus deeply injured is his inferior.”
—Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)
