We follow and obey all the precepts, dogmas and doctrines of the Church of the Apostles on Mount Zion in Jerusalem Capital of Israel.
Syro Malankara East Catholic Church and Old Catholic Church East Rite Uniate has no affiliation with such groups as the Polish National Catholic Church, Anglican Church, the Utrecht Union of Churches, the Liberal Catholic Church, the Old Catholic Churches of the Continent or any of the various independent groups which abound in the United States and elsewhere. The heterodoxy of these groups makes union with them impossible.
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
Welcome to the website of the Syro Malankara East Catholic Church and Old Catholic Church East Rite Uniate. Thank you for taking the time to find out more about us! We hope you will find the website interesting and informative.
Though one of the smallest denominations in the world we are one of the oldest! The Old Catholic Church East Rite Uniate, while affirming its historic continuity with the Apostolic Church of the first century, and while possessing a line of Holy Orders held in common with the Undivided Church of earlier centuries, traces its Apostolic Succession in more recent years through the ancient See of Utrecht in Holland. St. Willibrord, the Apostle of the Netherlands, was consecrated to the Episcopate by Pope Sergius I, in 696 AD at Rome. Upon his return to the Netherlands, he founded his See at Utrecht. One of his successors in that See was the great St. Boniface, the Apostle of Germany.
Old East Apostolical Catholicism is the modern revival of Catholicism as it was understood in the first centuries; not to attempt to perpetuate the faults either of doctrines or of works revealed by history in the Christian Church of the early centuries, but an endeavor, while conforming to our own times and our own countries, to be guided by the spirit of Christ, our only leader and to labor by this spirit, to put an end to the imperfections and vices that have defiled the Church in the course of time.
The Church is called "Old" not to disown the improvements which reason and the Gospel declare to be necessary, but to show fundamental dependence on Christ and His Gospel. We have no intention whatever of founding a new religion or of joining one of the sects that dreams of a fanciful Christianity in the future. We are faithful to the Church founded by Christ and preached by His Apostles as it appears in the books of the New Testament and in the Christian writings of the first centuries. We try to live by the spirit of our fathers and the saints honored by our ancestors, and thus to unite the Christian past with the Christian present for the Christian future.
