That they all may be one.

Who we are

Born of the mud, turned toward the light.

The lotus in our emblem is the pankaj, “born of the mud”. It rises out of murky water and opens each morning toward the sun. Our parish grew the same way: people who left Kerala to work far from home found one another here, and keep opening toward God’s grace.

• First CSI parish in the UAE — part of the Church of South India, a union of churches since 1947.
• One parish, two congregations — Dubai and Fujairah.

Illustration: Dubai Creek at sunrise. A pink lotus opens on the water toward the rising sun, which is ringed by the parish motto. A wooden abra carries passengers between a shore of Kerala palms and the Dubai skyline.

Worship

Every Sunday, the flame is shared.

At Holy Communion the whole parish gathers at the Lord’s table. The flames in our emblem are also the tongues of fire of the Holy Spirit. Like the lamp lit at every Kerala celebration, worship is where that flame is passed from one person to the next.

Illustration: inside the chapel. A brass nilavilakku lamp burns with seven flames beside the altar, where bread and a chalice rest. A rose window crossed by mullions is ringed with the motto, and a wooden hymn board lists the week’s services.

Ministries

A place at the table for every age.

Every generation has a seat here, and something to do, from the Sunday School child to the elders of the Laity Fellowship. Five fellowships, one family, and the Spirit’s flame burns over the whole table.

Visit

Two dots, one parish.

Our emblem has two dots, one on each side of the cross. On this map they mark the two places we gather: Holy Trinity Church in Dubai, and our congregation in Fujairah on the far side of the Hajar mountains.

Parish office: Flat 404, 5th Block, Dubai Residential Oasis, Al Qusais · P.O. Box 6365, Dubai

Illustration: a map of the northern UAE. The emblem’s two dots mark Dubai on the Arabian Gulf and Fujairah on the Gulf of Oman. The cross’s four arms lay out the road through the Hajar mountains between them, the petals become map pins, and a compass is ringed by the motto.

Mission

A channel, not a reservoir.

The Church of South India calls the Church a vibrant channel of God, standing with broken communities and carrying hope to them. The cross’s four arms are the same length, so every direction is cared for equally.

• Green Parish — caring for creation in a desert city.
• Solidarity & relief — standing with people who are struggling, here and at home.
• Learning & faith — Bible study, liturgy and Malayalam heritage.
• Peace & reconciliation — unity across language, generation and denomination.

Illustration: a round garden seen from above. The cross lies flat as an irrigation channel, carrying water from a central well to four equal fields: trees for creation care, homes for relief, a book for learning, and two people meeting for reconciliation. The motto circles the garden like a path, with a tree at each of the two dot positions.
