Brief History of Bangalore Parish

The Bangalore Parish of the St. Thomas Evangelical Church of India (STECI) stands as a testament to faith, endurance, and missionary vision. Its history is marked by dedication and spiritual growth, serving the community of believers in the city of Bengaluru.

The Humble Beginnings

The journey began with the arrival of STECI families who had moved to Bangalore for work. Initially, they gathered for occasional prayer meetings. This informal fellowship gradually became a weekly routine, often meeting at rented halls or the homes of believers. Services were held at various rented locations across the city, including Richmond Town, Indiranagar, and Infantry Road until a permanent place could be secured.
