Nadamel Church was patronised by the Cochin Royal Family. Whenever a new heir ascended the throne (on the 11th day after the demise of the departed monarch) he would make an offering called "Sharkara Thattu Veypu" in person at the church. It was customary for the Royal Highnesses of Cochin to meet the bishops and leaders of the Syrian Christian community at the church building to the south of this church.
