About Us
Welcome to St.Mary’s Syro-Malabar Catholic Church, Charlotte!
The desire to have our own place to celebrate mass in Syro-Malabar rite has been growing among the community members for a long time. We need a church facility to congregate, share in friendship & common bonds with others in the community.

Introducing the next generation to the “Traditional values with which we all grew up” is invaluable by any measures to many community members
