History of
the CMI 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 things: 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).
