Pray, Act, and Shine
Martha Mariam Vanitha Samajam (MMVS) is the women's Ministry of
the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church of India. MMVS found its
rightful place in most parishes, and was formally recognized by the
American Diocese of the Church in 1982. The primary goal of MMVS is
the spiritual development of the women in our church. All women are
welcome to participate in the life of MMVS.
