About the Organization

The Mar Thoma Voluntary Evangelists’ Association is an official organization of Mar Thoma Church. It was started in 1924 by a group of believers who were interested in evangelistic and intercessory activities. It is the ministry of the laity in the church and the main object of the organization is to ‘Witness Christ’ in the community where we live. The moto and purpose of this organization is to reveal to the world that “Every Marthomite is a Missionary”. The vision of this association is to witness Jesus Christ in our day-to-day life.The branch of the Mar Thoma Voluntary Evangelists Association at the parish level is known as “Edavaka Mission” and we want to stand loyal to the Great Command “You will be my witness.” All Adult members of the church is automatically the member of the Parish Mission.
