Looking only at the number of regular attendees,1 the estimated membership for all Eastern Orthodox Churches was 183,020 versus 171,045 for all Oriental Orthodox Churches. Between 2010 and 2020, Eastern Orthodox Churches have suffered significant membership losses: they declined by 17% in total adherents and by 14% in regular attendees. In stark contrast, Oriental Orthodox Churches have grown substantially in both total adherents (+67%) and regular attendees (+59%). However, these overall trends in membership were more nuanced when looking at individual Church bodies. This report examines and presents the 2010‐2020 membership changes in fourteen Eastern and nine Oriental Orthodox Churches.

  • Living to Tell the Tale-The Knanaya Christians of Kerala
    Living to Tell The Tale-The Knanaya Christians of Kerala Maria Ann Mathew , Department of Sociology, Delhi School of Economics. LIVING TO TELL THE TALE- THE KNANAYA CHRISTIANS OF KERALA In the first week of August, Kottayam town witnessed a protest rally by approximately 600 former members of the Knanaya Christians. The rally vouched for the restoration of the erstwhile Knanaya identity of the participants, who by way of marrying outside the Knanaya circle, got ex- communicated from the community. What is it about the Knanaya Community that people who have been ousted from it, refuse to part with their Knanaya identity? Who can give them their Knanaya Identity back? What is the nature of this identity? Belonging to a Jewish-Christian Ancestry, the Knanaya Christians of Kerala are believed to have reached the port of Kodungaloor (Kerala), in 345 CE, under the leadership of Thomas of Cana. This group, also known as ‘Thekkumbaggar’ (Southists) claims to have been practising strict endogamy since the time of their arrival. ‘Thekkumbaggar’ has been opposed to the ‘Vadakkumbaggar’ (Northists) who were the native Christians of that time, for whose ecclestiacal and spiritual uplift, it is believed that the Knanayas migrated from South Mesopotamia. However, the Southists did not involve in marriage relations with the Northists. The Knanaya Christians today, number up to around 2,50,000 people. Within the Knanaya Christians, there are two groups that follow different churches-one follows the Catholic rite and the other , the Jacobite rite. This division dates back to the Coonen Kurush Satyam of 1653, when the Syrian Christians of Kerala, revolted against the Portuguese efforts to bring the Syrian Christians under the Catholic rite.

  • Chapter Ii a Brief History of the Church in Kerala
    CHAPTER II A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE CHURCH IN KERALA Traditionally, Kerala extended from Gokarnam to Cape Comorin, but in historical times its area was confined to the Malayalam speaking territories on the coasts. The country slopes from East to West, with uplands and hills in the East, and plains, lowlands and fields on the western section. The coastal region is almost at the sea level, while the western ghats in the East form an almost unbroken range of mountains, some of which are as high as 10,000 feet. These mountains separate or in some way isolate Kerala from the rest of India, It might, therefore, appear that the Malayalis from the beginning have lived a life of their own. But Kerala's connections across the sea with the countries bordering on the Arabian sea was continuous and of particular significance, which have affected its society and culture. The Church, in fact, traces its origin to these connections, 2 Non-Christian Communities _ Kerala is an instance of the communities of three major world religions - Hinduism, Islam and Christianity - living within one territory. The Hindu community of Kerala experienced the most elaborate system of caste found in India, With 365 divisions and subdivisions,-^ and conceptions of purity and pollution which extended beyond untouchability 42 43 to unapproachability, Kerala was described by Vivekananda as a mad house of caste, *" Yet, the system was unusual in its structure. For, of the four basic varnas, Kshatriyaa were rare and Vaisyas almost non-existent, Nairs took the place of Kshatriyas, though they were regarded as Sudras by the Namboodiri Brahmins.

Centuries ago when scientists like Bruno and Galileo presented their scientific evidences proving that the earth is not flat and the Sun does not rotate around the earth as taught by the Church, the Catholic hierarchy was not willing to accept the truth. Instead of changing their dogmas by accepting the truth, they killed and persecuted the scientists. This attitude continues in Knanaya community today. They are led by blind beliefs and false claims. Even though we provided to Knanaya bishops, priests and community leaders DNA test results of more than 120 Knanaites showing close to100% Indian DNA for Knanaites of today (see attached), they are not willing to accept the truth. They still teach that Knanaya is an endogamous Jewish community and continue the practice of exclusion to maintain the non-existing purity. They are weakening the Knanaya community by excluding our children who marry from outside instead of assimilating them to our community.

The leading question is: to what extent does the indigenous narrative of that community about their religious identity differ from existing dominant historical accounts? It examines texts in Malayalam from the Jacobite Syrian Christians, particularly the unpublished 18th century Mathai Vettikkunnel manuscript, in order to investigate the narrative of their religious identity, in the context of existing scholarly discourse.

How My Ancestry Has Shaped Me Today Ashley John 4/6/21 Abstract: Geneology can tell one a lot of information about their ancestry and who they are today. Researching my own heritage and lineage has always been a point of interest for me. However, it was often quite difficult for me to be able to gather information about my ancestry as my great- grandparents and their ancestors did not use or save many records. I had to rely on information being passed down verbally through the generations to gain insight about my family roots. There is no way to fact check these claims unfortunately as there are no detailed records. However, I was able to find some old pictures of my great-grandparents which is the oldest piece of evidence I could find of my family. The 23andme results were able to reveal more about my genetic composition.
