Our mission

To gather this neighbourhood around Christ in the Eucharist, to form disciples at every age, and to serve whoever is in front of us, under the patronage of Our Lady of Fatima.

Our story

The parish began in 1953, when the Archbishop of Bombay entrusted a small chapel of Our Lady of Fatima at Kirol to the Capuchin Franciscan friars, who serve here still.

Our Lady of Fatima Church is aA parish of the Archdiocese of Bombay, within the [name] Deanery.

A word from our parish priest

Come as you are.

A parish is not a building and not an office. It is the people who show up: on Sunday morning, at a funeral, at a novena on a wet Wednesday evening. That is what you will find here.

If you are new to Vidyavihar, or returning after a long time away, please introduce yourself after Mass. If there is something you need, whether a blessing, a conversation or the Sacraments for someone who is unwell, the office door is open and so is mine.
