Marthoma brides — The Maramon Convention

The Mar Thoma Syrian Church came out of the nineteenth-century reformation of the Malankara Church, keeping the Syriac liturgy while taking on a reformed theology — and its families tend to marry within that particular inheritance.

Mar Thoma families gather each February on the Pampa sand-bed at Maramon for the largest Christian convention in Asia, and the reformed liturgy Abraham Malpan introduced still marks the church out from its neighbours.

What the profiles tell you

A bride’s profile names her parish and diocese in the Mar Thoma Church, her education and profession, and her family background. Congregational involvement is recorded where the family considers it material.

How the search works

Registration is free and opens every Mar Thoma diocese at once. Families usually shortlist online and then verify through the parish, which is how alliances in this church have always been checked.

Profiles are hosted on ChavaraMatrimony.com, the Chavara Family Welfare Centre service this site belongs to. Also see: Marthoma Grooms.
