5. THE ARCHDIOCESE OF AGRAA HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE

Agra Archdiocese consists of the following districts in UttarPradesh: Agra, Aligarh, Auriaya, Budaun, Bulandshahr, Etah,Etawah, Farrukhabad, Firozabad, Gautam Buddha Nagar,Hathras, Kannauj, Kanshiram Nagar, Mainpuri, Mathuraand in Rajasthan, Bharatpur and Dholpur (17 Civil Districts).

Emperor Akbar wishing to have some learned Christianpriests in his Court, invited the Jesuits from their college atGoa. The first 'Moghul Mission' was thus formed by BlessedRudolf Aquaviva (later a martyr at Goa), Antony Monserrateand Francis Henriques, who arrived at the Moghul Court,then at Fatehpur Sikri in 1580. A second and then a thirdmission followed. Jesuits enjoyed the patronage of Akbar andhis son Jahangir, but under Shah Jehan and Aurangzeb thisdisappeared. Though there was no Christian congregationof importance in Mughal India, there were a number ofindividuals who wielded considerable influence in the Courtand elsewhere.

When in 1773 the Jesuits were suppressed, two CarmeliteFathers from Bombay succeeded them in Agra, who in turn,were replaced by the Capuchins after a very short while. Bya decree of the Sacred Congregation, dated May 17th, 1784,the Vicariate-Apostolic of the Great Moghal was constituted.The history of the Agra Mission under the Capuchins is linkedwith their mission in Tibet. Early in 1708, four Capuchinsstarting from Kathmandu reached Lhasa after two months.More Capuchins followed them and took up their residenceat Lhasa until April 20, 1745 when, owing to relentlesspersecution by the Tibetan Priesthood they had to leave Tibetand return to Nepal. Thus the Capuchin Mission in Lhasacame to an end. But the Mission continued its existence inNepal until 1768.

9

The whole chain of Capuchin stations embracing the greaterpart of North India from Chandernagore to Lhasa, from Sindto Bengal, from the Himalayas to Narmada river, now thedioceses of Ajmer-Jaipur, Allahabad, Indore, Jhansi, Lahore,Lucknow, Meerut, Patna, Varanasi, Delhi, Jallandhar, Simla-Chandigarh, Bijnor and Jammu & Kashmir (formerlyRawalpindi) all came to be known as the Tibet HindustanMission. The Cathedrals at Agra, Ajmer, Allahabad, Delhi,Lahore (before the new one), Madras, Patna and Simla aresymbols and monuments of the untiring zeal of the Capuchinsfor the extension of the faith and the progress of the CatholicChurch in India.

The Prefecture Apostolic of Tibet -Hindustan was in 1820constituted into the Vicariate Apostolic of Agra with Msgr.Maria Zenobia Benucci, OFM Cap as its first Vicar Apostolic,who was succeeded by Msgrs. Anthony Pezzoni andAnthony Borghi.

In 1845, the Agra Mission was divided into two separatevicariates: Agra and Patna. In 1846 the Kingdom of Tibetwas entrusted to the Society of the Foreign Missions. In 1861the districts of Allahabad, Oudh, Kanpur, Bundlekhand,Sagar and Bhopal were added to the Patna Vicariate, and in1880 the districts of Kumaon and Almorah. In the same year,the Vicariate Apostolic of the Punjab was erected andseparated from Agra. Finally in 1886 when the CatholicHierarchy of India was established, the Vicariate Apostolicof Agra became a Metropolitan See from which the PrefectureApostolic of Rajputana sprung in 1913, and in 1956, the ninenorthern districts were formed into the Diocese of Meerut.

Thus the Archdiocese of Agra is rightly called the MotherDiocese of all the Dioceses of North India.

6. IMPORTANT MONUMENTS

6.1. AKBAR'S CHURCH (The Church of Pieta)

Akbar's Church built in 1598 was the first Catholic Churchof Agra and it was the Cathedral of Agra till 1848. TheChurch was built by the Jesuit Fathers under Akbar's order.It was a gift from the Mughal Emperor Akbar. In this Churchthe Mughal Emperors came to pray, especially Jahangir.Emperor Jahangir finding the Church built by his father,Akbar too small, donated a large sum of money for a largerand more beautiful Church to be built.

Two eminent Catholics, Khwaja Martins and Mirza SikandarJunior contributed generously towards the extension of thisChurch.

In 1632 Emperor Shah Jahan declared war on the Portuguese.He defeated them in 1634. He brought over 4000 prisoners toAgra, all Christians. They underwent persecution and so didthe Jesuit Fathers. In 1635 Shah Jahan released the JesuitFathers on condition that they pulled down their Church.This was done. However in 1636 the Emperor allowed theFathers to rebuild the Church with the material of the ruinedChurch. On September 8, 1636 the reconstruction wascompleted and celebration of Holy Mass was resumedthereafter. It underwent great changes during the course ofthe next two centuries.

In 1758 the Persian Invasion under Ahmed Shah Abdalishattered the Mughal supremacy. During the siege of Agra,the Church was ransacked by the Persian soldiers.

In 1769 Walter Reinhardt then Commander of Agra Forthelped Father Wendel S.J. to rebuild the Church and makean extension. In 1835 Bishop Pezzoni with the generous aidfrom Sir John Baptist Filose extended the Church westward.

11

This Church has witnessed many a historical event. In 1610,three Royal Princes, nephews of the Emperor Jahangir, werebaptized by Rev. Fr. Corsi, S.J. and Fr. Xavier S.J. It was here,the Begum Johana Sumroo, the Begum of Sardhana, wasbaptized. It was in this Cathedral the Religious of Jesus andMary from France were formally received by Bishop Borghiin 1842. It was the proud privilege of Bishop Borghi toconsecrate in this historic Church Msgr. Carli, Bishop ofAlmira in 1843 and the Servant of God Bishop AnastasiusHartmann, Vicar Apostolic of Patna in 1846. The Churchhas been refurbished and renamed 'The Church of Pieta' bya decree from the Archbishop Albert D'Souza on September17, 2013 during the Holy Eucharistic Celebration by the MostRev. Vincent Concessao. Eucharistic Adoration is held dailyfrom 11 a.m. to 5.30 p.m., concluding with the Holy Mass.

6.2. THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CEMETERY (MARTYRS' CEMETERY)

In 1604 Akbar gave a written order under his royal seal tobuild in Agra the Church known up to the present day asAkbar's Church. One of those Firmans states that in the fourthyear of his reign Emperor Jahangir granted to the AgraFathers 12 bighas of land (for the use of a cemetery) and agarden, free from all taxes. This cemetery is situated near theCivil Courts, on the road to Dayal Bagh. It is an enclosedgarden with a big gate facing south. Its walls built of ancientsmall bricks are very high. It is still in use.

The history of this cemetery is of great value. It has thereforebeen declared a protected monument and placed under thecare of Government. Many bodies were very often broughtfrom long distances to this cemetery even when there was aChristian cemetery available locally. Thus men like the EnglishDiplomat Mildenhall who died in Ajmer in 1614, the ItalianJerome Veroneo, the supposed architect of the Taj who diedat Lahore in 1640 and many others are buried here.

12

Khojah Martyrose a very wealthy and generous merchant isburied in the mortuary chapel he himself built in 1611. Thischapel is also the tomb of Fr. Mark Anthony Santucci, a saintlyItalian Priest from Lucca who came to India in 1668 and diedin 1686. He was and after so many years still held in reverence,that the chapel where he is buried is also known as the PADRESANTO CHAPEL and vows are made of flowers, incense, candlesetc. offered at his grave by Christians and non-Christians alike,for favours received through his intercession.

The cemetery is also known as the "Martyrs' Cemetery"because Fr. Manuel Garcia and Fr. Manuel Danhaya buriedthere, died in prison for the faith, the former on March23,1634 and the latter on August 2,1635. Also because,during the persecution of 1632 to 1635 by Shah Jahan,hundreds of Portuguese and Indian men, women and childrenperished in Agra for the faith. Shah Jahan declared waragainst the Portuguese on June 11, 1632 for political reasons.It resulted in the attack and capture of their settlement ofHooghly on the North-West mouth of the River Ganges. 4400prisoners were taken and they were bodily marched in chainsto Agra. The journey took nine months. They wereaccompanied by Fathers Antonio de Christo, Francisco of theIncarnation, Joas de Cruz, Manuel Garcia and ManuelDanhaya. A great number of them died in prison or throughterrible hardships because they refused to become Muslims.Their bodies were carried in the silence of the night to thiscemetery and confined to pits and unmarked graves.

1. CATHEDRAL OF THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTIONAGRA

The present stately Cathedral is dedicated to Our Lady ofthe Immaculate Conception. The construction work wasbegun in 1846 by Rt. Rev. Dr. Joseph Anthony Borghi, O.C.,the Vicar- Apostolic of Tibet-Hindustan and was solemnlyblessed by him on January 1, 1848. The architect of theCathedral was Rev. Fr. Bonaventure, an Italian from Florence.

In 1857 the Church was extensively damaged during the FirstWar of Independence. The magnificent High Altar which wasdonated by Messrs John & Co. was consecrated with greatsolemnity by the Most Rev. Dr. Gentili, O.C., in December 1899.The beauty of the Church was further enhanced by paving itsfloor with white and black marble slabs and replacing the sixplaster altars at the side with marble ones. The Cathedral hasbeen renovated under the directions of Archbishop AlbertD'Souza and Fr. John Ferreira in 2013.

St. Mary's Church came into existence in April 1923 as a giftfrom the well-known John family of Agra, in memory of Mrs.Mary John. They also donated the adjoining compound witha large bungalow in it for the maintenance of the Churchand the chaplain.

The foundation stone of this Church was laid in April 1920and on its completion, was blessed by Archbishop RaphaelBernachioni on April 5th, 1923 and was dedicated to Mary,Mother of Good Counsel. Thus, the Church came to fulfillthe long felt need of the residents of the locality as they foundthe Cathedral and St. Patrick's Parish too far for their spiritualneeds. Around 1968, at the request of the H.A.L. employees,the dedication was changed by Archbishop Dominic Athaideto Mary Mother of Good Health, after the Shrine of Our Ladyof Velankani in Tamil Nadu.

The Religious of Jesus & Mary, seeing the need of the Catholics,established St. Anthony's School in the vicinity of the Church.

The compound adjoining the Church was handed over tothe Missionaries of Charity by the Archbishop in 1961. In1964 Shishu Bhavan, a home for the abandoned, crippledand differently abled children was opened. Prem Dan, a homefor the aged and dying destitutes was opened in 1980.

40. SACRED HEART CHURCHMATHURA

Mathura is a large town on the banks of Yamuna. Inprehistoric times it was the capital of a mighty Hindumonarchy in which Agra, Etmadpur and other places as faras the Chambal River were included. During the middle agesit fell into the hands of the Muslims, during whose rule manymonuments of historical importance were destroyed.

Mathura is known as the birth place of Lord Krishna. On thebanks of the River Yamuna there are many sacred templesand ashrams, held in great veneration by the Hindus whocome on pilgrimages from all over India.

Christianity has coexisted with Hinduism in Mathura for fourcenturies. The first European to come to Mathura was aFrench priest, Fr. Tavernier in about 1650. AnotherFrenchman Bernier visited Mathura in 1750 to install theastronomical instruments of Raja Jai Singh.

In 1803, Mathura and Agra were conquered by the British

65

under General Lake. Before 1800, a small community ofCatholics mainly Armenians and Goans lived in Mathura.Later Mathura became the headquarters of the British troops.The foundation stone of the Church dedicated to the SacredHeart was laid in 1874. The Collector of Mathura, Mr. Grouse,supervised the construction of the Church and contributedgenerously towards its building. Being a keen admirer ofOriental arts he adopted a pure Oriental style. The Church isin ordinary Gothic style but the dome is Russian in character.This church was blessed by Msgr. Jacopi, Archbishop of Agra,in 1876 in the presence of many Hindu gentlemen besidesthe Catholics.

The Franciscan Brothers of Mt. Poinsur started theirmissionary work in Mathura in 1936. In 1956 the school runby the Parish of the Sacred Heart Church was given over tothe Congregation of Mother Mary of Jesus Immolated. In 1958the Archbishop invited the Congregation of the CarmeliteSisters of Trivandrum to look after the school for the diocese.In 1960 the Indian Missionary Society Fathers of Varanasi cameto work in the Mathura Mission. Due to their efforts manyvillages were strengthened by the programmes of social uplift.Unfortunately, they left the archdiocese after some years.

41. ST. MARY'S CHURCHNOIDA

At the northern tip of the Archdiocese of Agra lies St. Mary'sChurch with its borders touching the ecclesiastical territoriesof Delhi and Meerut. Even in the initial days of its growthand development, Noida being an industrial city, attractedthousands of people because of the many job opportunities,residential amenities and clean pollution-free environment,apart from the proximity to the capital city of Delhi.

Among the early migrants were a few Catholics who longedfor the services of a priest. When Fr. Augustine Kuriappally,the then Parish Priest of Trilokpuri Parish in Delhi offeredhis services, the seeds of St. Mary's Parish were sown inJanuary 1983. Even though the Priests from Delhi took careof the pastoral needs of the few Catholics, Noida remained'no one's child' without any clear indication as to whichdiocese it belonged to.

The adoption process however was initiated in early 1984when Fr. Johnson Chiriyankandath, the then Parish Priest ofBulandshahar, of the Archdiocese of Agra, started visitingNoida and finally took charge of the new parish from Fr.Cyrillo Rodrigues of Trilokpuri, on August 23, 1986. ThusNoida, became part of Agra Archdiocese. The foundationstone of the present beautiful and majestic Church in Sector34 was laid by the Most Rev. Cecil DeSa, the Archbishop of

67

Agra on August 15, 1991 and exactly after two years, thesame was dedicated to Our Lady at a majestic ceremony onAugust 15, 1993.

The advent of TOR Fathers in January 1997 added a newdimension to the pastoral care of the faithful. Under thedynamic leadership of Fr. Mathew Kumblumoottil (1994-1999) who succeeded Fr. Johnson, the parish grew into avibrant community. Fr. Joe Thykkattil, Fr. Ignatius Miranda,Fr. Mathew Thundiyil & Fr. John D'Cunha have served theparish with singular devotion.

43. HOLY FAMILY CHURCHTUNDLA

The Church of the Holy Family was built in 1856 chiefly tolook after the spiritual needs of railway employees consistingof Europeans and Anglo-Indians. Until 1967 this Church wasvisited by a priest from Agra to conduct services on Sundaysand feast days. In the course of time the work of the Churchdeveloped and extended its services to the nearby villages

69

and hundreds were baptized. Unfortunately these peoplebecame apostates. Fr. Pius, Fr. Peter Celestine, Fr. Clementand Fr. Francis Lobo worked in the parish up to 1970.

On June 28, 1970 Fr. K. C. Thomas was appointed residentpriest. On July 3, 1972 he opened Christ the King Englishmedium school in a rented building. Later in September 1972,Franciscan Sisters of St. Joseph from Madras arrived to lenda helping hand in the Parish.

In 1978, Christ the King School was shifted from the rentedbuilding to the place purchased by the Archdiocese on theAgra-Kanpur Highway. The school was upgraded to a HighSchool in 1985.

A new plot of land was purchased in September 2007 torelocate the primary sections. On August 15, 2008, theconstruction of the first phase of Christ the King Primary Schoolcommenced. In July 2009, the K.G. sections, in July 2010 ClassesI to III and the rest of primary section in 2012 were relocatedin the new campus; also the school was raised to seniorsecondary school.
