CHRIST CHURCH KACHHAWA MIRZAPUR
Chirst Church Kachhawa was built by “Bible Churchmen Missionary Society” or
in short (BCMS) in 1939 for hospital staff and the local Christian
Community. In those days BCMS was responsible to run the Kachhawa Christian
Hospital which used to be under the authority of the Diocese of Lucknow.
Now the hospital is taken over by the “Emmanuel Hospital Association” and
of course, they have built their own chapel also.
Needless to say that Christ Church Kachhawa is a beautiful Church built in
one of the European style. We the members of Christ Church Kachhawa are
really very lucky to have such a grand Church in a small and remote place
like Kachhawa.
It is a matter of concern that we don’t have a full time pastor here,
though we have a personage as well. Rev. Suresh Masih Dean
Mirzapur/Sonbhadra comes here once in a month to perform Holy Communion
Service.
As our diocese has now got a new Bishop who is none other than Right Rev.
Morris Edgar Dan, we hope that, if GOD wishes, we will soon get a
full-fledged pastor in our church in the days to come.
