Towards the southern most tip of India lays the State of Kerala known all over the world as God's Own Country. Edakochi is a small village which is situated around the middle portion of this beautiful state blessed with vibrant flora and fauna. Near to the city of Kochi, (or Cochin as it was known earlier) which is the Commercial Capital of Kerala, is situated the Church St Lawrence at a small village called Edakochi. Cochin is know as the Queen of the Arabian Sea and encompasses some of the old and well preserved historic monuments in the Country.

Surrounded by bluish backwaters, the land of Edakochi has a history dating back to several centuries. Nature has spread its artistic skills such that the view from the front yard of the Church here itself is capable of lessening one's burden in soul. The church is just 10 km away from the historic Fort Cochin, regarded as one of the Historic Places acclaimed by UNESCO.

The place is easily accessible by road, water and air. The NH-47 National Highway is passing just in front of the old Church of Edakochi. With the presence of vast backwaters, the place can be easily approached by boats, houseboats and yachts. Moreover, the Cochin International Airport (CIAL) is just 30kms away from this holy pilgrim center. People can also reach here by rail as two railway stations, Ernakulam Junction (12kms) and Ernakulam Town (14 kms) are both adjacent easily reachable to this place.
