Under his leadership, in 1990, the building at 3735 N. Narragansett was purchased and it has been the home of St. Thomas congregation until now. It was consecrated by H. G. Dr. Thomas Mar Makarios. In 1993, the then Catholicose, H. H. Moran Mar Baselios Mar Thoma Mathews II, visited and blessed the church. In December 2004, Very Rev. Koshy V. Poovathur Cor Episcopa retired, and Rev. Fr.

The church has acquired 1.5 acres of land in Schiller Park near O’Hare, where the future home of the church will be built. The church now has about 64 families, and it is gratifying to see the third generation members participating actively in the Church. The parishioners are actively engaged in all Church activities including the Sunday School, Martha Mariyam Samajam, and MGOCSM.
