Mor Sabor &\; Mor Aphroth are believed to be two saintly men who came to Malankara to preach the Gospel. The two were most likely f rom Dayro d-Mor Mattai Nineveh. They came along with a group of Syriac Chr istian immigrants lead by a merchant named Maruvan Sapir Iso. They are sai d to have disembarked at Quilon (Kollam) in c. 822. They were preachers of the Gospel &\; it is believed that both were bishops. They established churches in Quilon\, Kayankulam\, Udayamperoor\, Kadamattom &\; Akapar ambu. According to one tradition\, the Malayalam Calendar era (Kolla Varsh am) started with these holy fathers who settled at Kollam in AD 825. While not much is knows about the two\, for the faithful in Malankara they are saintly figures who built many churches in Malankara. Both Mor Sabor &\ ; Mor Aphroth are named after Syriac martyr saints who lived in Persia dur ing the early centuries of Christianity. To honour the memory of these mar tyrs\, the visitors to Malankara built churches in the name of these Persi an martyrs. This is corroborated by the records of the decisions of the 'S ynod of Diamper' (Udayamperoor). Mor Sabor is believed to have been based at Quilon &\; Mor Aphroth at Udayamperoor. Some accounts suggest that M or Aphroth was based at Kodungalloor. Mor Aphroth is believed to have been instrumental in the conversion of the royal family of Udayamperoor to Chr istianity. It is believed that the Villarvattom royal family\, perhaps the only Christian royal family in Kerala was an offshoot of this conversion. The records of the Thareesa church at Quilon indicate that the church was established by Sapor Esho. Historians suggest that the records refer to Ma ruvan Sapir Iso\, the merchant leader of the immigrant group\, or Mor Sabo r or perhaps both. The Tharisappalli Copper Plates are a set of grants by the King. The inscription describes the gift of a plot of land to the Syri ac Orthodox Church at Tangasseri near Quilon (now known as Kollam)\, along with several rights &\; privileges to the Syriac Christians led by Mar uvan Sapir Iso. The word 'Tharissa' is a corruption of the Syriac word 'tr eeysath' meaning 'Orthodox'. There is a rock cross at Kadamattom St. Georg e Syriac Orthodox Church built by Mor Sabor. The Phalavi (Persian) inscrip tion on the cross is translated as follows\, "I have come to this nation f rom Nineveh as a bird. Mar Sapor writes\, the forgiving Messiah who saved me from persecution".The Udayamperoor Synod (illegal Synod forcefully conv ened by the Portuguese colonialists in a bid to force the Syriac Orthodox Church of Malankara to be subject to Rome) in the mistaken belief that Mor Sabor &\; Mor Aphroth were Nestorians removed their names from the lis t of the holy ones &\; changed the churches named after them to the 'Ch urch of All Saints.' (19th canon of the Synod). Although the Akaparambu ch urch was represented at the Udayamperoor Synod\, it did not acknowledge th e decisions of the Synod &\; retained its name. The other churches are called the 'Church of the Qadishangal' (Qadishangal being a corruption of the Syriac word for the Holy Ones\, Qadishé). Today\, Kollam Qadisha Chur ch\, Kayankulam Qadisha Church\, Kadamattom Church &\; most famous of a ll Mor Sabor-Mor Aphroth Church Akaparambu stand as testament to the evang elization of these saintly Syriac fathers. The Syriac Orthodox faithful of Malankara continue to venerate &\; commemorate the dukhrono of these 2 Holy Fathers every year. None of the other Kerala Christian communities d o so.Oh Mor Sabor and Mor Aphroth! Plead for us before God's throne of gra ce. Amen.http://www.soc-wus.org/ourchurch/Sts.%20Shabor%20&\;%20Aphroho t.htmLecture Series - Malankara Church &\; it's relation with the Persi an Church (courtesy Hymonutho): https://bit.ly/3b2jY8a LOCATION: END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
