The 40-year-old journey of St. George Orthodox Syrian Church began in 1980, when 25 members of the St. Thomas Orthodox Syrian Church, Malad led by Late Mr. K. I. Pothen approached His Grace Dr. Mar Philipose Mar Theophilus the then Metropolitan of Bombay Diocese. They requested to start a church in Borivali.

Rev. Fr. M. T. Easow was appointed as the first Vicar and the first Holy Qurbana was celebrated on 27th April. The Qurbana was conducted only on the 4th Sundays of every month in a classroom of St. Francis D’Assisi School Borivali. The first General Body Meeting was held immediately after Qurbana to elect the managing committee of the church.
