About St. Mother Teresa Church – The faithful of Virar was catered by the Holy Spirit Church, Nandakhal. They used to have services at Pereira Hall. Later the whole of Virar area was entrusted to the Salesian Fathers. Initially they stayed at the Holy Spirit Church, Nandakhal and ministered to the faithfuls of Virar. The Salesian fathers built the Church at Manvelpada, Virar East. It was rather difficult for the faithful to commute from Virar West to Virar East. Thus with the consultation and agreement of Salesian Fathers, Bishop Thomas Dabre, in June 2007 felt a need of having a separate parish of Virar West. Hence in 2007, Blessed Mother Teresa Parish was created and dedicated to Patron Blessed Mother Teresa and looked after by the Diocesan Priests.
The Church building is not ready yet, but the Charismatic church is strong and active. At present we have celebration of all our Sacraments at Blessed John XXIII CBSE School and the daily Masses at Necessity Bungalow. Despite the struggles and difficulties, all the necessary sacraments are administered and faithful’s spiritual needs are catered to.
