About Welcome to the Facebook page of St. Thomas Jacobite Syrian Orthodox Church, Melbourne. Story Welcome to the website of St. Thomas Jacobite Syrian Orthodox Church, Melbourne. St. Thomas Jacobite Syrian Orthodox Church is an independent church affiliated with the Malankara Jacobite Syrian Orthodox Church in India, which recognizes Holy Apostolic See of Antioch and all the East, His Holiness Moran Mor Ignatius Zakka I Iwas as its supreme head and His Beatitude Catholicos Baselios Thomas I as the spiritual head in India. The church named after St. Thomas, the Apostle of India, is most known for how he is portrayed in the Gospel of John, he first appears as a symbol of strength, encouraging the others to follow Jesus to Judea where death awaits. Later he expresses doubts about following Jesus. Finally, after Jesus resurrection, he is the “doubting Thomas” who refused to believe that Jesus had been raised from the dead. He insisted: “Unless I see the marks of the nails in his hands, and put my hand into the wound in his side, I will not believe.” If he doubted, he also believed! He made what is certainly the most explicit statement of faith, St. Thomas the apostle cries out “My Lord and My God.”(John 20:28) this is the clearest affirmation of the divinity of Christ something which none of the other apostles had done and in so expressing his faith, gave Christians a prayer that will be said till end of the time. St. Thomas Jacobite Syrian Church, Melbourne is located at 78 Whites Lane, Yuroke, Craigieburn, Victoria, Australia 3049 and was started on June 2nd, 2013 by the apostolic bull issued by H.G Mor Irenios Paulose, Metropolitan Archbishop of Malankara Jacobite Syriac Church of Kozhikode, Australia & New Zealand diocese.
