Activities & fellowship through the year.

Alongside daily worship and hospital service, our campuses come together for festivals, national days and staff gatherings that build community with patients, families, doctors and well-wishers.

We celebrated Onam with pomp and colour on 24th August 2025 — church members, students, guests and patients enjoyed the programmes and delicious traditional Kerala cuisine together. The 79th Independence Day was celebrated at the new Guidance Home, with Very Rev. K.Y. Jacob hoisting the National Flag.

At Christmas, the Director and staff visited the homes of CMC Doctors and well-wishers to share the joy of the season. A Christmas programme for staff was conducted on 20th December. During the year we also procured a new scooter and a Bolero Neo vehicle, and staff participated in the Diocesan Convention at Chetpet.

We thank God for the blessed leadership of Rt. Rev. Dr. Gregorios Mar Stephanos Episcopa, whose enthusiasm and deep commitment to the people who come here with various ailments marks the pillar and cornerstone of this institution's growth.

With gratitude to Diocesan Secretary Rev. Ninu Chandy, Bishop Secretary Rev. Joseph Lino, Diocesan Treasurer Mr. Joseph Paul, the Diocesan Council Members, Rev. Dan Thomas George (Assistant Director), Guidance Home Treasurer Mr. Abraham John, LAC members, Internal Auditors, CMC Doctors and staff, Vicar Rev. Rona Korah Thomas and members of St. Thomas Mar Thoma Church Vellore, Social Worker Mr. George Mathew, and all the staff of the Mar Thoma Guidance Home.
