==History==&lt;br /&gt;
Mar Abraham who came to Malabar in 1570 settled in Angamaly as his See to govern the [[Saint Thomas Christians]]. Its jurisdiction was extended whole over India till the 16th century. The most ancient University for Malpan training was established at Angamaly before the arrival of the Portughese. The Chaldean bishop Mar Abraham was ordained as the Metropolitan and the Gate of All India and Rabban Hormiz Church was the Cathedral church.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Du Jarric, tom. I, lib.

==Mar Hormizd Church, built by Mar Abraham==&lt;br /&gt;
After having made a successful escape from the Portuguese detention in Goa, Mar Abraham returned to Angamaly in 1570. In the same year, Mar Abraham started to built his first Cathedral Church namely [[Rabban Hormizd]], a seventh-century Abbot of the East Syriac Church, as its patron.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Pius Malekandathil , “Angamali And The St. Thomas Christians: An Historical Overview,” in Angamali And The St. Thomas Christians: An Historical Overview, https://www.nasrani.net/author/pius-malekandathil/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1578, as a response to the requests made on the part of the [[Jesuit]] missionaries who had been working in Angamaly and in the other centres of the [[Christians of St. Thomas]], the pope sent plenary [[indulgences]] to the Church of Rabban Hormizd which the faithful could obtain four times a year for 25 years from the year of the election of the Metropolitan [[Mar Abraham]]. The indulgences covered two feasts of the Patron Rabban Hormizd that fell on the fifteenth day after Easter (Monday) and on the first of September. As requested by Mar Abraham, the Jesuits laid the foundation stone of a new Cathedral Rabban Hormizd in the same place that was chosen by the Metropolitan.{{sfnp|Malekandathil|2020}}&lt;br /&gt;
