History
Manamadurai, which was previously a part of Rajakembiram parish, was established as an independent parish in 1964 under the leadership of Fr. S.L. Ubagaram as its first parish priest. Due to the necessity of using the old church site for a school and convent, Fr. Ubagaram constructed the presbytery and the church at a new location. These structures underwent modifications, rebuilding, and enhancements including a taller tower under the guidance of his successors Frs. A. Devasagayam, A. Irudayam, and S. Sengole. The present presbytery was built by Fr. S. Vincent.
