Diocese of Coimbatore
About
The Diocese of Coimbatore, a 150-year-old urban diocese covering 30,000 sq. km across the districts of Coimbatore, Erode, parts of Trichy, and Palghat, welcomes you with joy. Based in the vibrant city of Coimbatore—known as the “Manchester of South India”—the diocese thrives in a region blessed with a pleasant climate, rich agriculture, and strong industrial growth, especially textiles. Despite its modern development, Coimbatore preserves deep cultural and religious traditions, reflected in its churches, temples, mandirs, and mosques. The diocese, nurtured by God’s abundant blessings, has grown spiritually, pastorally, educationally, and socially over the decades. With gratitude for its humble beginnings and steady progress, the Bishop, clergy, religious, and laity warmly invite you to join in thanking God for His continual guidance and to know more about the life and mission of this dynamic diocese.
