The Holy Eucharist in Syro Malabar rite was celebrated on every Thursday at\u00a0 SFS church Hebbagudi, to the great joy of the community in and around Electronic City. It was a dream come true for all the members of the community and was attended and accepted by the all.\u00a0 Later, on 15th September 2002, His Grace, Most. Rev. Ignatius Pinto, the then Archbishop of Bangalore inaugurated Our Lady of Sorrows Parish, which is dedicated to the Our Lady of Sorrows. Rev. Fr. Mathew Kalathinkal took up the the responsibility to guide the parish as the first Vicar of the parish. He started celebrating the Holy Mass on every Sunday in Malayalam in the SFS church for the faithful gathered around.
