History of the CMI Religious Congregation

The hillock of Mannanam was called Bes Rauma, the abode above, the heavenly Jerusalem, by the founding fathers, Malpan Thomas Porukara, Malpan Thomas Palackal and Blessed Chavara. On this hillock the foundation stone was laid on 11th May, 1831 for the first house of the first indigenous religious congregation in India, the Camelites of Mary Immaculate (C.M.I.). In the 19th century, when the modern age was ushering in, it was in Mannanam that the history of St. Thomas Christians of Malabar took a new shape and gigantic stride. Mannanam was not merely the birthplace of the first indigenous religious congregation it was also the birth place of many other firsts: the first indigenous seminary of the Malabar Church (1833), the first catholic Sanskrit School in Kerala (1846), the first catholic printing press in Kerala (1846), the first catholic English School in Kerala (1874), the first daily news paper in Malayalam: the Deepika ( 1887), and the first catholic monthly in Kerala: Karmelakusumam (1903).
