St.

St. Joseph's Cathedral church in Kotdwar, Uttarakhand. On October 31, 2011, a momentous occasion unfolded as St. Joseph's Cathedral, Asia's second largest church at this altitude, was consecrated with great reverence. His Beatitude George Alanchery, the Major Archbishop of the Syro-Malabar Church, and His Grace Albert D'Souza, the Archbishop of Agra, led the consecration ceremony. They were joined by distinguished guests, including Most Rev. Gratian Mundadan CMI, the Bishop Emeritus of Bijnor, and Most Rev. John Vadakel CMI, the Bishop of Bijnor. The atmosphere was filled with joy and devotion as bishops, priests, religious members, and faithful congregated, along with Rev. Fr. Biju Vadakkel CMI, the Parish Priest. The foundation stone of this magnificent cathedral was laid on December 5, 2001, by His Excellency Bishop Gratian Mundadan CMI, the Bishop of Bijnor, in the presence of priests, religious individuals, and faithful members of the diocese. It marked the beginning of a remarkable journey that culminated in the grandeur we witness today. St. Joseph's Cathedral stands tall as a testament to faith, unity, and the spirit of community. Its architectural splendor is matched only by the love and dedication of all those who contributed to its creation. Let us cherish this sacred place and continue to find solace and inspiration within its hallowed walls.
