Rev. Peter Kochery, the Vicar General of the Syro-Malankara Catholic Exarchate in USA has been honored by the Holy See by conferring on him the title of Chaplain to His Holiness. This recognition invests on him the title of Rev. Monsignor.

For the Syro-Malankara Catholic Church and for the Apostolic Exarchate in America, this is a moment of great joy and we consider this to be a special honor for the Exarchate. Our dear Rev. Peter Kochery deserves this recognition, given his exemplary priestly qualities and the meritorious service and leadership that he has been and is still giving to the Syro-Malankara Catholic Church in North America.

In order to honor Very Rev. Msgr. Peter Kochery, there shall be a thanksgiving Holy Mass at 10.00 am. on Saturday, Nov. 17, 2012 at our Church in New Jersey, followed by a short felicitation meeting. His Excellency the Most Rev. Dr. Thomas Mar Eusebius, Bishop of the Exarchate will preside over the Holy Mass and the meeting.
