Meet of Orthodox church's student movement from Dec 26

The 105th Annual Global Conference of the Mar Gregorios Orthodox Christian Student Movement, students' wing of the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church, will be held here from December 26 to 29.
About 700 delegates from various parishes and units across the country and abroad are expected to participate in the four-day conference to be held at the Kottackattu Convention Centre in Nalanchira, a release issued by the organisers said today.
The meet is envisaged as a platform for students and senior members to have a deeper idea and experience on the faith, life and mission of the church.
Delegates from Egyptian, Ethiopian and Eritrean Orthodox churches would be attending the meet.

According to Metropolitan of the Thiruvananthapuram Orthodox Diocese, Gabriel Mar Gregorios, the first MGOCSM conference was held in 1908 at Thiruvalla in Kerala
The movement originated in Madras as a fellowship of students and seniors in the early 1900s. In 1960, it was named as MGOCSM after Mar Gregorios of Parumala, its Patron Saint.
Since then it has assumed an international dimension having 1,500 units with over 27,000 members the world over.
