In the history of the Syro-Malankara Catholic Church, a team of Eucharistic Ministers was formed.
A program conducted at Catholicate Centre on 16 July 2014, His Beatitude Moran Mor Baselios Cardinal Cleemis Catholicos, in consultation with Holy Episcopal Synod, entrusted the responsibility to the new members by giving holy vestment and appointment order.
They have the responsibility to help the priests in distributing Holy Communion in big parishes and institutions. Out of 37 members of the team 23 are from Major Archieparchy of Trivandrum, 12 are from Eparchy of Marthandom and 2 are from Archieparchy of Tiruvalla.
His Grace Thomas Mar Koorilos, Chairman of the SC for Liturgy, felicitated the new members.
Rev. Dr Antony Kakknatt and Rev. Dr Isaac Parappally lead the classes for the team members.
