About Parish
Ambasamuthiram was part of Veeravanallur parist till 1983. When the spiritual need of the Catholic people increases it was felt that it should be made a separate parish. This dream in the being on 10th May 1983. It was erected as a new parish. People are very much attached to church and one deep in faith. Most of the people are industrial labourer’s business men, Government Officials, Teachers etc. It is one of the Taluk of Tirunelveli District. It is a developing town
