MGOCSM-OCYM

Mar Gregorios Orthodox Christian Student Movement (MGOCSM) is the oldest Christian student movement in India. It was created to enrich the spiritual life of students in the various educational institutions through Worship, Study and Service—which is its motto.Orthodox Christian Youth Movement (OCYM) is the youth wing of Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church with same motto.

The MGOCSM, now a global organisation representing the student wing of the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church, was founded in 1907. Its inception was in Madras, by a group of eager youth who wanted to walk in Christian fellowship.
