ODISHA MISSION
REGIONAL VICARIATE OF ODISHA
The mission activity in Orissa by Manjummel Province came into existence with the inauguration of an erected Monastery at Chatrapur, in the diocese of Berhampur in the year 1991, under the Patronage of our Holy Father St. Elias, by the initiative of the pioneer of the mission Fr. Rockey Kuttikal OCD. During the past twenty three years, the major thrust of the Mission was to find out a way to promote local vocations and to reach out in service to the needs of the local people, remaining within the possibilities at hand. For this we started concentrating on education of the Catholic Children from all over Orissa, special focus on the remote villages in the mountains where children do not have any access to schooling. Together with the various social, pastoral, mission activities we have realized in getting few good number of local vocations.
