Before Damruhat became a Parish in 1982, Fr. Theodore Baa TOR was taking care of it from Agiamore Parish. In 1982, Rev. Fr. Jacob Kollamparampil was appointed as the first diocesan Parish Priest of the new Parish of Damruhat. He built the School and the Parish Church which were blessed by Rev. Fr. Joseph Cheruchilampil on November 20, 1983. The sudden demise of Fr. Jacob Kollamparampil at the age of 41 on November 24, 1984, due to cerebral malaria in Damruhat, saddened the presbyterium and the faithful. He was an enthusiastic and committed missionary. Rev. Fr. Peter Goveas succeeded Rev. Fr. Jacob as the Pastor. The Bethany Sisters render their service in Damruhat. |
