Prayer for the Election of Syro-Malabar Church head 2024


Following the Resignation of Cardinal Mar George Alencherry, the Major Arch Bishop of the Syro Malabar Catholic Apostolic Church, as its patriarch head on 7th December 2023 following old age and other health issues, the Synod of the Church is meeting in January 2024 to elect a new head. 

The Syro-Malabar Church is one of the 23 Oriental (Eastern) Churches keeping full communion with the Universal Catholic Church headed by the Pope. It is the largest Catholic Church after the Latin Catholic Church and the Ukrainian Catholic Church.

Election of the Heads of the Churches are not like that of the political parties. There won't be any campaigning or canvassing. The members of the synod meet in Prayer and seek the discernment of the Holy Spirit to vote and elect the candidate whom Lord Jesus Christ wants to lead His Church in this difficult times.

Hence the Administrator of the Syro Malabar Church, Bishop Mar Sebastian Vaniapurackal is informing all the members of the Syro Malabar community to pray the above election preparation prayer for electing the Major Arch Bishop, in all our Churches, Religious homes and in institutions after the Holy Masses and in all homes after the family prayers.


Please listen to this prophesy message given by the Holy Virgin Mother through Lay mystic Rani John Kanchikode in 2004 about the present crisis we are witnessing in the Church.
