Faith, Heritage, and Mission
Ss. Peter and Paul Cathedral stands as a magnificent testament to the enduring faith of the Catholic community in Mahakoshal. Situated in the heart of Sadar, it serves not only as the Mother Church of the Diocese of Jabalpur but also as a sanctuary of peace and prayer for people of all walks of life. Its architecture, history, and vibrant community life reflect the glory of God and the service of His people.

The seeds of faith were sown with the establishment of the first mission station in the region, serving the small Catholic community.
The first dedicated chapel was constructed and blessed, marking a permanent presence of the Church in Jabalpur.
As the community grew, a larger church was built and blessed, serving as the center of worship for over a century.
The devastating earthquake caused significant structural damage to the historic building, necessitating major restoration.
Rising from the ruins, the new Cathedral was consecrated and blessed, symbolizing resilience and renewal.
Rooted in the Gospel and the Sacraments, we strive to deepen our relationship with God through daily prayer and worship.
Following Christ's example, we are committed to serving the poor, the sick, and the marginalized in our society.
We believe in building a welcoming and inclusive family where everyone finds a home and a place to belong.
