Servant of God Fr.Varghese Palakkappillil (Payyappilly) was the manager of St.Mary's High School, Alwaye where he had his boarding life.

Ordained to the priesthood on August 24, 1939, he then did pastoral work in the Archdiocese of Ernakulam, serving as assistant pastor at Narakal and North Paravur and as pastor at Chunangamvely. He was also editor of the weekly Sathyadeepamn ("Truth's Light"). On October 28, 1953, Parecattil was appointed Auxiliary Bishop of Ernakulam and Titular Bishop of Arethusa dei Siri by Pope Pius XII. He received his episcopal consecration on the following November 30 from Eugène Cardinal Tisserant, with Archbishop Joseph Attipetty and Bishop George Alapatt serving as co-consecrators. After the death of Archbishop Augustine Kandathil on January 10, 1956, Parecattil was promoted to Archbishop of Ernakulam on the following July 20. He attended the Second Vatican Council from 1962 to 1965, and served as President of the Syro-Malabar Episcopal Conference, of the Kerala Catholic Episcopal Conference, and of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of India (1972-1976). Pope Paul VI created him Cardinal Priest of Nostra Signora "Regina Pacis" in the consistory of April 30, 1969.
