The fruition of the dream of Catholics living in Kakkavayal came into realization on 1998 January 30 when the mission church of Puduppady raised into a parish. The first vicar was Fr. Vinoy Purayidathil. Before the arrival of the new vicar, the parish was under Puthuppady parish as a mission cjurch and the benevolent hands of the priests like Joseph Arackaparambil, Fr. Thomas Pamplani MST, Fr. John Kalariparambil and Fr. Thomas Nagaparambil can not be forgotten. Their spiritual leadership paved the way for putting strong foundation to this parish.

It was on November 1, 1998 that Alphonsa church was officially raised to the status of a parish. Fr. Purayidom was the first vicar of this parish, who ministered here for two years (1998-2000).

Fr. Roy Koonany (2000-2001) followed Fr. Purayidom who planned for a cemetery.

Fr. Mathew Nirappel (2001-2005) initiated the cemetery construction and the work continued during the ministry of Fr. Kuriakose Chemplany (2005-2008). The final stage of the cemetery was completed by the following vicar, Fr. Joseph Poothakuzhy (2008-2012).

Fr. Poothakuzhy was succeeded by Fr. Joseph Pamplany (2015-2018) and it was during his time that a piece of land (40 cents) was purchased for a future church building.

Fr. Joseph Ezhanikatt (2018-2021) succeeded Fr. Pamplany, who took initiative to renovate the parish rectory. It was the time of Covid-19 pandemic and his hard task was to keep the faith up and active though attending the church was restricted.
