  • This church was very popular with the Anglo Indian community who lived in the Entally Area. Most remembered priests in this church were Fathers Roland, Henry and Nicoise who were from Belgium. They played an active part in the Parish community especially with the Bengali christians, and all spoke fluent Bengali. My parents were married in St Teresa's and myself and all my siblings were baptised in this Parish.
  • does this church provides sacrament of confession?
  • do you know how we would obtain a marriage certificate from this church
  • Hi Denzil.... I am publishing a photo album on Churhes of Calcutta. Do you have any old photographs of St Teresa. Kindly mail me on sekhartspl@gmail.com. Thanks
