About this church
St. Mary's Syro-Malabar Catholic Church worships at 2581 S Sanford Avenue in Sanford, Florida, and belongs to the Syro-Malabar Church under its Diocese of Chicago. The Holy Mass, called Holy Qurbana, is celebrated on Sundays at 9:30 a.m., with a second Sunday liturgy later in the morning during most of the year; the website lists both 11 a.m. and 11:30 a.m., so confirm before visiting. Sunday liturgies use Malayalam and English. Saturday Mass is at 9:30 a.m., and weekday Masses are held Monday through Friday at 7:30 p.m.
The parish keeps a weekly devotional rhythm. A novena to St. Antony follows Tuesday Mass, a novena to St. Jude follows Thursday Mass, and a novena to the Blessed Mother under the title of Perpetual Help follows Saturday Mass. On the first Friday of the month, Mass is followed by adoration of the Blessed Sacrament that continues into the evening. The website includes pages on parish information, liturgy, parish history, and the Syro-Malabar tradition, which traces its roots to the preaching of St. Thomas the Apostle in India. Visitors can also find forms, Malayalam songs, an events calendar, and weekly bulletins posted online.
