  • The Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church is popularly known as Indian Orthodox Church in the International Orthodox Communion of Churches. This Church is believed to have been founded by the Apostle Thomas in his mission to India and the Eastern regions of the Roman Empire in the first century AD. This Indian Orthodox Church was known as Jacobite Church from 1665, until the adoption of new constitution of the church in 1934. This change was made in confirmation with its theological and traditional connections with other Orthodox church bodies of the world. The church is theologically and traditional a part of the Oriental Orthodox Communion of Churches. It was acting like a foreign diocese under the Orthodox Catholicos of the East until 1665, and later under the direct rule of the Syriac Orthodox Patriarch of Antioch. This continued till 1912 and in that year the Catholicos throne itself was transferred from Persia to India. The Indian Orthodox Church accepts the Alexandrian Christology, as does the Coptic Orthodox Church and its two daughter churches, the Ethiopian Orthodox Church and the Eritrean Orthodox Church.
