St. Gregorios Orthodox Church

We are a close-knit Malankara Orthodox Christian family in Switzerland, gathering monthly to worship, fellowship, and pass our sacred traditions to the next generation.

The Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church, also known as the Indian Orthodox Church, traces its origins to St. Thomas the Apostle in the 1st century. St. Gregorios Orthodox Church Switzerland is a parish under the Diocese of UK, Europe and Africa, serving the indian Orthodox community across Switzerland.

Join Us for Worship

Our Holy Qurbana services are offered in both Malayalam and German, allowing families to worship together across languages and ensuring that ancient traditions remain vibrant and accessible for every generation.
Our time together doesn’t end with the Holy Qurbana. You are warmly invited to stay afterward for coffee and a community lunch hosted by our members. We would love to see you at the table!
