Chavara Kuriakose Elias - Latin or Roman Catholic ?


One of the most discussed topics before canonisation is about rite of Chavara Kuriakose Latin Church in Kerala says he belongs to them becuase Chavara Kuriakose Elias died at a church in Koonammavu near Earnakulam which is under Latin Rite.  Chavara Kuriakose Elias  is well known in Kerala as a Roman Catholic of Syro Malabar Rite. The  mortal remains of Blessed Chavara Kuriakose Elias is located at Mannanam. Mannanam comes under Kudamaloor Parish in Chenganachery Arch Diocese of Syro Malabar Church. Since Mannanam Ashram is run by CMI priests syro malabar diocese also have limited joy. In short entire credit goes to CMI priests who belongs to Roman Catholic Syrian Church.
